dreamvoid 10/09/18 4:08:39 PM #1:	https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/trump-s-tariffs-have-already-cost-ford-1b-now-it-n917756 Ford will be making cuts to its 70,000-strong white-collar workforce in a move it calls a "redesign" of its staff to be leaner, have fewer layers, and offer more decision-making power to employees, the company announced. The number of jobs that will be axed is unknown at this point. A lot of the (reorganization) is about making different choices about strategy, Chief Financial Officer Bob Shanks told NBC News, adding that the goal isnt just to slash spending but to improve the fitness of the company. However, a recent report by Morgan Stanley estimates "a global headcount reduction of approximately 12 percent, or 24,000 of Ford's 202,000 workers worldwide. "Such a magnitude of reduction is not without precedent in the auto industry, analysts wrote in the investment note. The decision is part of Ford's $25.5 billion reorganization plan, which includes slashing $6 billion in improved capital efficiencies. Ford CEO Jim Hackett, who cut more than 12,000 jobs as head of office furniture maker Steelcase, had been expected to make cutbacks even sooner, according to some observers. Hackett took over from Ford veteran Mark Fields when he was ousted from the company in May 2017. Ford is lagging behind the competition, selling an anemic 32.8 vehicles per employee. Long-time rival GM puts out 52.7 vehicles per employee. But it's unclear exactly how improved efficiencies will impact potential job cuts. Ford has already warned that President Donald Trump's auto tariffs have impacted the company to the tune of $1 billion, and the presidents trade policies threaten to play havoc with Fords ongoing reorganization, Shanks told NBC News. Trump and Ford have been squaring off since well before the 2016 election, when then-presidential candidate originally threatened to impose hefty tariffs on vehicles Ford intended to start importing from a factory in Mexico. The carmaker eventually scrubbed that plan, but rather than return production to the U.S. it decided to move it to China. Ironically, Ford actually may have to cut production of the Mustang and some other models in the process, potentially reducing U.S. jobs as a result of the tariffs China has enacted on American-made vehicles in a tit-for-tat trade war. The Mustang had been one of the most popular U.S. vehicles sold in that country. trump hates the working man. how are tariffs supposed be making america great again? --- https://imgur.com/2Qfzt9X https://imgur.com/qlXpj2E https://imgur.com/rPe48jC https://imgur.com/5xltd3r <cite>dreamvoid posted [p:910242929] in Trump's ta...

They got around the light truck tax of the chicken tax like others after some adaption, but being so widespread across the world it was only a matter of time for other stuff to get hit. As for their vehicles... they're ok, not really a fan of them outside of a few examples. To be fair they announced axing 5 of their car models from the US(or entirely) months ago so this isn't suprising in the least. Thought it was India, but was Turkey. Though to be fair they're pretty european heavy so to claim they're murican is about as accurate as when my parents claimed their buick was a great american car after being protestant of korean vehicles.

If TOO BIG TO FAIL wasn't a thing Ford would have more market share because GM and Daimler Chrysler would have lost ground in the NA market. This is a result of more than "evil Trump's tarrifs" Look at Obama and his "Too big to fail bailing out of the banks and auto industry". Ford held their own when times were tough WITHOUT your tax dollars only to have their competition get propped up on your tax dollar. --- We make men without chests and expect from them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. - C.S. Lewis <cite>HypnoCoosh posted [p:910286283] in Trump's ta...
