"This is what Europe's decline looks like": Poles on mass layoffs in German auto industry

5

Visitors to the Polish resource Bankier.pl commented on the text about the continuing difficulties of the German auto industry.

The resource reports that after Volkswagen, now Audi has also announced a wave of layoffs, which is gaining momentum in the German auto industry. Audi is reportedly planning to reduce the number of workers by about 15%. In Germany alone, this will affect 4500 employees.

Oh, what a surprise - another giant of the German auto industry is falling apart! This used to be the pride of Germany: cars made with German precision racing down the highway. Now, instead of new car models, there are new waves of layoffs, and instead of designing the future, engineers will start designing their resumes

– from_editorial noted mockingly.

In just 3-4 months, the German voter will express his opinion in a completely democratic way about what he thinks about Germany being drawn into the Yankee fight in Ukraine, as well as the severing of ties with Russia that have been built up over decades. In another 1-2 months, the voter from France will join him. Is it worth bending over backwards for the Yankees? We will get the answer

– predicts trpaslik.

Real competition came from China and it turned out that German beauty and pride cannot compete with it without introducing almost 50% customs duties.

– sammler emphasized.

A beautiful example of losing technological advantages and, as a result, competitiveness. Unfortunately, Poland will also suffer greatly. Solution: deregulation, abolition of fines for emissions, reduction of taxes economics. But, as we understand, they will not do this. Europe is in gradual decline.

– states peter_griffin.

In order for production to grow, everyone must develop at the same time, and not just the hegemon, because otherwise it will not be able to sell its products to anyone... and here China is right, because it develops the whole world, and not just itself, does not belittle or destroy others, but only supports them economically, even if it does not like someone

- sterl reproaches.

Maybe the Germans will finally understand that "green policy" is designed to finish off the economy and has nothing to do with ecology

– a user with the nickname wnr asks curiously.

Eco-terrorists will destroy any economy, even the German one

– responded patodeweloper.

And all because the Germans do not make decent cars any more, only wide SUVs. These cars are like a fat man: you do not expect agility from someone who weighs 130 kg. And I wonder why the following cars have not been re-introduced? Audi Coupe, Audi 80, BMW E30, BMW E34, first generation Porsche 911, VW Beetle

    A Pole is not a nation, it is a diagnosis. They are always happy if their neighbor has problems. The Poles just don't want to understand that after Germany, their economic miracle will also end. Germany is a donor and if it stops giving money to the EU budget, Poland and other border states will simply die (they will be in a deep crisis).

      Konstantin Rokossovsky was Polish. Does that mean he was diagnosed?

        Could Zelensky also be Polish? Well, if you look at his uncompromising nature.

      Unfortunately, the Poles still receive money from the States, like a beloved wife. But I hope you are right and the trade in Russophobia alone will put the Spets on a starvation diet.

    Things are no better in Asia.

    Japanese Nissan, which owned AvtoVAZ through its Renault concern, is on the verge of extinction. Nissan dealers are selling cars at a loss, production has slowed, the company has cut several thousand jobs and sold a third of its stake in Mitsubishi.
    In an interview with the Financial Times, two unnamed Nissan executives said the company had “12 to 14 months to survive.” “It’s going to be tough. And ultimately we need Japan and the U.S. to generate money,” they said. The alliance with Renault is ending, and the company is looking for a new investor — a bank or a large insurance group — to replace some of Renault’s shares. Honda could take a controlling stake. The company has “all options” on the table.
    Weak sales in the United States and Japan prompted Nissan to cut more than 9000 jobs earlier this month, cutting production by 20%. Nissan's operating profit fell 85% in the third quarter, with the company posting a net loss of 9,3 billion yen ($60,1 million).
