Tavares is trying to make himself look good by slashing and burning to cut costs. Next comes all sorts of problems because the company has been gutted and next comes rebadged Chinese vehicles. VW is already doing it and Stellantis is also starting to do it. 100% of Stellantis vehicles to be sold in Singapore will be Chinese vehicles built in a Polish factory. They already have shown their plans. Almost 100% of Stellantis vehicles will be on a single platform. We all should have known legacy manufacturers would be gutted by EVs. They aren't vertically integrated and so don't know how to do anything other then bolt modules provided by suppliers onto sheet metal. I'm no Tesla fan but that company is vertically integrated and therefore designs everything in their cars including the chips. That's why VW failed even though the German government gave them €50 billion to do EVs. They couldn't get all the different CPUs to talk together so the vehicles sucked electricity. All of this was known to be a stumbling block years ago. 5 years ago VW spent €7 billion hiring 25,000 software engineers to sort it out. Obviously they failed and no wonder because the task was impossible.

Prices are going to high. The 1500 has doubled in price in 5 years. We won't buy.

Yes that 4 dollars an hour per employee is alot for a corporation to handle. Can they do it? Sure. Higher up the scale should decrease their incomes to accommodate for their base line employees. But they will never do that. The term some people say "the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer" does have some significance to our problems. If everyone's salary goes up, you aren't getting anywhere. There's more to the problem than just a higher salary for burger flippers.

When you allow dealers in your network to rip off people and jack up the MSRP on your products…what did you think would happen.

That is why those wagoneers don't sell, and the dealers can't give them away.

I mean the wagoneer is a really nice vehicle but any would think about buying a vehicle that large and luxurious would rather pay that amount for a vehicle that doesn't have the jeep nameplate on it. Its seriously common sense it should be a Chrysler branded vehicle. Chrysler doesn't even have a vehicle remotely close to it so this market strategy is seriously faulty

You know the US economy is struggling if Honda is struggling right now. Wild times.

That "expert" car analyst failed to mention the real cause for these slow sales numbers, Stellantis hiked prices by over 50% since 2019. They dug themselves into this pit.

Fight for that huge raise so you can get laid off. Brilliant idea...

Its not just fighting for wages it's fighting against corporate greed.

Nobody can afford these vehicles anymore prices are ridiculous

Another win for the CEO

I’m retired now and have been laid-off 5 times in my life from differing industries. Get use to it. This has been going on for decades.

How about them strikes? Why not strike again? Oh wait you're fired!!

Whole automotive industry about to loose some jobs. Inflation and high interest rates are hurting everybody.

So not just Tesla. That's what I thought.

The absolute worst company I have ever dealt with. I bought a brand new Dodge Charger Daytona several years ago and went through hell with it. This company and its service departments treats its customers horribly.

Thanks Shawn! Keep unionizing the South

why i ignore any recruiter emails from the auto industry

Yes greed of the company AND the union!

It’s the 10 to 1 rule… for every 10 workers laid off, their workload is shifted to 1 remaining worker. Allowing executives to maintain their bonuses… in double speak, often referred to as company profitability.

$90k for a loaded half ton pick-up? Either no one is buying, or they are getting greedy.

Strikes have consequences 😮.

not too many working class people can afford a truck that starts off at 50K$... yea, they advertise a truck that has NOTHING for 38K, but most dealers load up the trucks and they average starting around 50K and goes upto 90K...

Problem is their vehicles are way too expensive... they would sell if the prices were realistic.

The description says 400 salary workers but the report says 199 factory workers. Is it in both areas or just the one? This is a confusing report or maybe I'm not understanding something.

And so it begins. So long Dodge. Isn’t this news……electrifying?

​@@j.l.salayao8055it is still Stellantass.

Stellantis on average raised their MSRPs by about 50% since 2019 despite inflation being only 22%. What is the extra 28% in price increase is supposed to represent? Did the benefits & quality of their products grew significantly since 2019? We don’t see it! From a customer perspective, there is no substantial added value there to justify the steep price increases. This is why Stellantis has lost 10% in sales last year while simultaneously losing overall market share due to pandemic induced corporate greed.

I see a lot of companies are laying off people in the U.S., what is this trend?

Hopefully Ford has a place to store all those unsellable vehicles . They need to build a museum so the next generation can see what they looked like .

What going to happen to them fellas in Alabama when they went to a union.

The unions played you all. That's what they do now. Look for employers who have a robust employee rights contract that gets negotiations every 3 years.

They brought this on themselves with their ridiculous union demands.

As an auto transport driver, this negatively effects my job. As least that’s what I’m thinking. I’ll certainly find out if they can produce enough vehicles for me to stay busy.

Of course, push the unions. Lmao

Folks, they're all McJobs now. Honestly, McDonald's might offer more in terms of skill development and advancement opportunities.

same comment as many others, sales has changed to lower sales with higher prices vs lower prices with more sales, demand is not going to shift to the new anytime soon

Hows that built back better going up there ?
