Nashville, Tennessee-based Bridgestone, the largest manufacturer of automotive and specialty tires in the world, announced a reduction in force at its Des Moines, Iowa, agricultural tire facility.
The reduction in force will impact 118 employees.
According to a company spokesperson, "Bridgestone regularly evaluates all aspects of its business to ensure we remain competitive and resources are allocated in a manner that best supports our business strategy."
Change is coming. There will always be a tomorrow, no matter how much you may try to ignore it. There are no guarantees in life or promises for a bright future. We see good people being laid off through no fault of their own. Just because something bad hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it won't. It can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere. No one is guaranteed to wake up tomorrow and still have a job by evening. Are you now wondering, Am I Next?
