Chrysler is losing money by the truck-load, and its vehicles are not selling, so common sense dictates that Pentastar team was going to start making cuts soon. That time is now, when Chrysler notified workers that it would be cutting 1000 white collar workers. Chrysler spokesman David Elshoff told employees that the company would achieve its target cut through retirements, attrition, buyouts and, which means people will not be handed boxes and receive security escorts just yet. Chrysler management is making the cuts with the belief that the current economic situation here in the States is not going to improve any time soon. A quick look at the Pentastar's car lineup shows the privately owned company would be in trouble even if the economy had a rosy outlook. No timetable was given for the white collar cutback.
