It should be a big red flag as to where we are headed. Once they need again a really competent, experienced and skilled workforce, there will be none. They are creating a generational gap by preventing people from progressing in their careers and developing skills and expertise. Giving priority to shareholders over employees will create huge systemic problems in the near future. Not that they care. Greed-driven reasoning is short-sighted.

Well the braindrain began back at FORD2000. The launch of both the Escape and Focus in the early 2000's would set the tune of things to come. this was followed up with bad senior management. Ford 2000 also drained our management bench. Ford was lucky with Alan but that type of leader is generational they don't grow on trees like clowns (JF/BF).
today it was announced Ford borrowed another $9bn+ for those battery plants. that adds to the already $142bn in debt they have. stand up JF take credit for that one...
Glad I retired.. I did not get walked out I left on my own.
tired of the bs culture created from the top. they are boring not inspiring quick to point the finger for blame but hoard any good news.
JF OR BF you could not even tie Alans shoes that is how bad you two are.
I think the majority of our workforce will be moved overseas to low cost countries.
I think that even the manufacturing will move someday. Just as soon as the price to import is cheaper than the price to build and ship from some third-world country.
The genuineness running from top down to supervision don't care and the majority are waiting to retire.
The brain drain began 5, 6 years ago when they started offering packages to all the older workers. The engineers and IT workers with all the knowledge took them at a pretty sizable clip and this is what the result is. I say thank you to Farley because I was 1 of the old pension eligible, un-retrainable old pharts who were an impediment to progress.
Ford is supporting the social, inept, lazy, gossipy employee's....
The productive is getting far and few.
@pvh+1vXupwUy independent contractor taking on risk and expenses for Amazon and probably doesn't get to p-e all day. Really raking it in. Don't simp the system and victim blame... It's not a free labor market when the majority of it is controlled by billionaires and their proxies
Don't agree with you.
I just had a 20 something Amazon delivery driver drop off a package at my place when it was clearly addressed to the people next door. I told the Amazon driver she missed delivered the package. She didn't care at all or even take the package back and deliver it to the right address. I'm sure this Amazon driver is making much more than minimum wage. She doesn't even deserve minimum wage with her laziness and poor work ethic. Amazon and other companies should fire people like this and also deny them unemployment benefits.
Greed would drive stockholders to insist management does profitable things.
The people who hold the controlling “class B” stock should be interested in the long-term profitability of the enterprise.
So, it must be just that the stupid is strong with this crew.
