The hiring process is broken. Management hires people like themselves, not people with aptitude and skills.
The firing process is broken. Management fires people who are threats to them (more skilled, more respected, more liked, better paid because they are top achievers)
Ford can’t retain good employees, they want to learn, grow and soar with eagles ; not roll around in the mud with coworkers fighting over scraps and pulling others down.
So Ford is doomed as they consistently excel at repelling good employees and attracting and retaining bad employees.
CarCar is great at buffing the tird and selling hot air, but nothing has changed for the better. Seriously what well run company needs to hire BCG to tell them what to do? And what leader with an ounce of common sense would say Hey let’s get rid of all of our technical experts because they make the most money. And then let’s give ourselves a bonus for saving their salaries. A well run company would fire the masses of loafers and all the non-contributors on the friends and family plan. A well run company would prune the top heavy management tree. Yes I know Ford doesn’t even pretend to be a well run company.
