BREAKING: GENERAL MOTORS LAYING OFF OVER 1,000 EMPLOYEES, 600 OF WHICH ARE LOCATED IN WARREN, MICHIGAN
General Motors is throwing it's hat into the massive job cuts in the auto industry by announcing they are laying off over 1,000 salaried employees with more than 600 of them being from the Warren Tech Center in Warren, Michigan.
In a statement, GM spokesperson Kevin Kelly said as the company builds its future it "must simplify for speed and excellence, make bold choices, and prioritize the investments that will have the greatest impact. As a result, we’re reducing certain teams within the Software and Services organization. We are grateful to those who helped establish a strong foundation that positions GM to lead moving forward."
This comes just about a week after Stellantis said they plan to permanently eliminate 2,450 UAW jobs at it's truck manufacturing facility in Warren no later than the 2nd week of October when they end production of the Ram 1500 Classic.
