Thread regarding Ford layoffs

laid off today

I was notified today by a manager that I had been laid off. The manager just read a script and said sorry, etc. During the meeting, he asked for my personal email and phone number to send the lay off package with all the information.

The private meeting was sent early in the morning, after that, I know that I will be canned.

For those who are interested, the severance package is exactly the same as last year. You get 9 month pay if you have 20+ years of experience. You will get fewer month pay if you have fewer years.

I'm sorry you you had to experience a layoff - I was ' separated ' last august. Take a few days to grieve, then regroup, update your resume and move on. It's heartbreaking so many good people are suffering based on the incompetence and stupidity of senior executives. Ford does not have leaders, they are frauds and one day will suffer. Rest assured, there are incredible opportunities - and you will thrive. To he-l with Ford, disgrace on Bill Ford and the greed of the Ford family, to he-l with Farley, a pathetic shell of a man and the rest of the pigs that have destroyed what was a good decent company.

I am so sorry, but like I told my engineers today:

Ford should not have let you go, but I know whatever company hires you, you will take them far if they give you a chance.

Keep your head up; you are awesome, and let no one tell you otherwise!

The A-plan eligibility for three years is a joke. This company will never see another red dime from me.

Same here, laid off after 25 years. 9 months severance, 9 months health insurance, have to return company car by Friday, and A plan eligible for 3 years.

Same playbook as August. Remember this when you go to buy a new car.

Toyota. Honda. Kia. Hyundai. Mazda.

Make the big 3 pay!

Prayers with you! Sad new! "With every hardship there is ease". GM's package is more respectful than that of Ford! For every year, they gave a month's pay! Talk about kicking a person while they are on the ground! Not getting any better!
