You didn't, actually.
connected vehicle will fire you because "two men don't like you".
..and your telling people here to grow up. Thinking that your executive leaderships word is any better then random people on the internet. Look at you. Your going to have a hard time. I hope you have a thick skin. Life is going to treat you well. Better be tough if you're gonna be d-mb.
There was just a Global Town Hall meeting and no mention of cuts or otherwise. Grow up.
I'll trust what Ford leadership tells us rather than some anonymous nobody on the internet.
@c4 I'm not the "brace for impact guy" but I can tell you there's something in the works. "You or your coworker may be an "automated assistant" in the very near future." Actual quote from the CFO.
Ah yes the mandate to push out those they have no intention of ever promoting to leadership.
Up or out.
Farley will on one hand complain to the press that he can’t hire and retain skilled engineers.
And on the other hand internally say we need to significantly lower the average retirement age by allowing younger workers to advance in their careers faster.
The leadership tree doesn’t want the age discrimination to apply to them so instead they continually increase the levels of internal hierarchy in order to comply with promoting younger workers.
If you aren’t in leadership then plan to be pushed out at 40. The more technical you are the more likely you will be pushed out.
If you are in leadership, know that you signed up for an ongoing nasty Ford Hunger Games. And no company wants to hire Ford middle managers, so you are stuck. Expect stress related health issues.
@ch you’re not wrong
This has been the M.O f since the beginning of time. The people that stick around are the ones that align themselves with the right people and know how to build the right relationships. The real actual talent gets thrown table steaks in the hopes that their social skills keep them at the level they are at and they ignore being laughed at in back offices when they are subjected to manufactured urgency.
Fine, I already switched from CVS to Walgreens.
create modernization then lay off the people that created it??? nice incentive to do good work
The “brace for impact guy” likes to spread fear. The regulars here know he is wrong.
Connected Vehicle Services / Over The Air - the task is not just limited to these areas.
CVS/OTA????
