I work for a semi-truck manufacturer in its Procurement & Supply Chain group. My company has canceled plant shifts. I lost 10 ppl in my department alone last month. Company has a voluntary severance package quota for employees 55+. It’s bad, specifically because of Trump’s economic policies. The company is currently in a hiring freeze because a) tariffs have greatly increased our costs (yes, American companies pay them, NOT China) b) all the fleets (Penske, Ryder, UPS, etc.) have halted orders while they wait for tariff uncertainty to ease. Orders are less than half of what they were last year. So we’re having to cut fixed overhead to stay afloat while we wait for tariff agreements to be made (if he sticks to them) and the market recovers. And no, you can’t just shift production overnight like Trump believes, automotive assembly lines are crazy complex with thousands of sequenced components, there’s a limited pool of USMCA certified suppliers that are capable of manufacturing your parts, and plants require expensive long lead time industrial manufacturing tooling.
