For several months now it's been rumors of layoffs and hour cuts. So far it's just rumors. However, Goodyear won't be able to sustain if it continues to hire people with no work ethic. Young people still at home with mama come here and don't give a... —  read more

Any truth to the rumor mill about GT being acquired by hedge funds ? If so, their modus operandi is to strip every company down to bare metal and sell it for scrap.

Please share how many employees work at the company. Finally, how many of them are employed at Akron?

So far just a huge, voluntary reduction in workforce. 740 current employees at the plant just accepted buyouts. That reduction probably eliminates the prospect of layoffs for the immediate future. I'd like to think so as well, but weren't they... —  read more
