Stellantis can suck it. They have done nothing to help any of the American brands. They got rid of the two cars people actually bought from dodge, and overpriced Jeep and Ram.

Layoffs in industry are not unusual when production is paused to adjust inventories. Yes Stellantis raised prices to high and this is the result. Once inventories are in line production will re - start with 2025 models.

Is it common that they are roadmapping that they will "provide affected employees with one year of supplemental unemployment benefits in combination with any eligible state unemployment benefits, equaling 74% of their pay, followed by one year of transition assistance. Health care coverage also will continue for two years."?

It reads to me as though they really don't plan on giving these people their jobs back. This seems like a permanent reduction in headcount, not a furlough.

EDIT: This CNBC link is calling this an indefinite layoff.

When interest rates skyrocketed the housing and auto industries felt the pinch harder than anyone else. We all know about sales being off and the 15K+ 2023 JTs sitting on lots until Spring this year. We also know about the boneheaded managerial decisions of Stellantis. What doesn't get as much play is that the Feds put their thumb on the scale via regulatory changes, thereby compelling automakers to invest heavily in EV tech when sales were heading down and rates were climbing. That plus a few billion annually in increased CAFE fines are all compounding effects. I hope Stellantis can withstand the storm but right now it's not looking great.

Keep in mind-- I'm not an anti-EV person, we're considering one next year if the market turns around and things get better. If not we hold off till the following but it's definitely on the radar.

Here come the conspiracies. Keep watching Fox. I’m sure you’ll be enriched by their bullshit commentary. Ratings before honesty. Fox and newsmax unite.

People need to stop calling them "mainstream". They are far from it.

Sorry to hear this for the workers. Management really screwed them trying to bring the Jeep brand upmarket.

You can't trust any of them. Mainstream media is where political agenda is more important than truth. Have you ever seen the compilation videos where all the mainstream media across the country are saying the EXACT same words/phrases/lies. Word-for-word. The videos overlay all of them saying it at the same time and it sounds like a cult meeting.

You keep using the word mainstream, avoiding just telling us which sources you don’t like. So you’re aware, I get zero of my news from television. And zero from social media. I trust actual journalism. Asking if I’ve seen “the videos” is like claiming that the imaginary “they” are responsible for all bad in the world. I’m happy to have this debate, and will do it civilly, but let’s do it in a direct message so neither of us get banned.

That’s why this is truly my ONLY social media. No fb, no anything else, ever. Jeeps or the app is deleted. :)
