Ford to offer buyouts to 8-9,000 employees
GM to offer buyouts to all unionized workers. ( not clear if that includes Canada )
Gm's net loss for 2007 was $23 million
Just read it's for the US workers that the buyouts are offered at GM
yeah, GM keeps breaking records... of the wrong kind!
Last I heard, Chrysler was in a real slide too.

I did some work up at the Chrysler head office last month and talking to some of the senior guys most were offered $50'000-$75'000 buy outs.
GM and Chrysler are light years behind the times. Ford starting offering buyouts when the decision was made to close plants(including the truck plant) in what???2002 I believe??
Unless your very close to retiring, the buyout is not worth it.
Bell is doing the same now too.
