As a laid off John Deere employee I have one thing to say to the CEO. Build cost effective equipment for your customers. The models you are building do not work with $4 corn. And enough of the DEI nonsense!
Where do you think everything gets made in the Carrier driving engines transmissions computer boards it is an America boy and Donald Trump's not through messing your country up and I'm laughing I'm wealthy and retired and watching what's gonna happen to you people that voted for the biggest garbage in America.
What's wrong can't you stand free enterprise in America, You elected Donald Trump the biggest garbage in America wait till the next 2 years go by I'm gonna be laughing at how he destroys everything around you.
It seems like CEOs think they can do whatever they want ....destroying customer care and service and sometimes they think they are invisible.....just recently that's been proven false ......
When you build farm equipment and then prevent buyers from accessing software to make adjustments and repairs, your equipment has little value to the end consumer. Buy something else.
I’m glad I bought a Kubota. The Deere ?? Particularly the Compact tractors have way too much plastic. I learned they have lawn tractors that have plastic transmissions that fail early, the replacement very expensive and just another plastic transmission that will fail soon too. When I looked at their compact tractors, I found them expensive and cheaply made. A went with Kubota and after 8yrs with the Kubota which at that time was cheaper and superior. And unlike Deere whose parts are made all over the world by a whole host of vendors. Kubota is 100 percent Kubota and no darned plastic! I hope Trump spanks their a”” , they got it coming for screwing Farmers!
If they persist down this path, they could end up like Farmall did. The farmers are not the group to mess with! Who needs a $26 million dollar annual salary? This is so ridiculous it is pathetic!! Take from the needy and give to the greedy!! They could fall like other American Iconic Firms if they don't mend their ways!
The reason they're going to Mexico is bigger bonuses for the CEOs of John Deere. There's other farm equipment out. There is just as good or better than john deere,
If John Deere were alive today he would be livid with the direction of the company. For him it was about helping farmers for this group of corporate raiders, its just about greed & profit. Nothing more nothing less.
You said it greed. no CEO is worth 23.7 million dollars in pay and stock options. If the workers were not there JD would have no product to sell and create the more than 10 Billion dollars in profit I've seen some of the product that have come out of mexico the reliability is but a fraction of what comes from the USA. I am talking abut high end companies who thought they would do just as JD is moving to lower cost. shameful and nothing but greed. Software lock the same thing
John deere has been taking advantage of farmers for years .intentionally make repairs impossible without taking tractors to dealer ,basically extortion ...shame on john deere
John Deere doesn’t want you to work on your own tractor, Ford doesn’t want you to work on your own Truck. You don’t own it you’re just renting it even if you do on it.
I'll tell you what we can do we can boycott not buy anything that's a John Deere product unless there's zero alternative and they'll change their mind over it or their shareholders will go Belly Up😮
No different than any other business these days cut their cost and raise the prices at the same time until people get sick of them an will never buying their stuff again and they go out of business.
The Board and top executives should be replaced at once. Let the workers receive stock options and bonuses. Stop the economic disaster of letting American jobs go to Mexico. And the Congress should pass legislation to stop all manufacturers from letting "intelluctual property rights" and software from ever being the key to the repair of all products made or sold in the U.S. Such legislation should include all products made anywhere as well.
John Deere used to be a good solid company but now they Outsource all kinds of work from other countries India Germany now they want to move to Mexico why don't you just take your junk and travel I'm not going to go into all the different reasons other than moving to Mexico to manufacture my father was a John Deere mechanic I also worked with him in our shop and I'm pretty sure if he was still here he would be saying the same thing we have been true to John Deere but if John Deere cannot be true to us we don't need you
Jail?! Seriously ? he didn't do anything against the law.. feel free to boycott but jail? The only ones that need to go to jail are those in our government who took an oath to serve our nation but instead secretly swore allegiance to I$ßael instead of their own country and their own people and that's 99% of them!
Jail? Seriously? He didn't do anything against the law, feel free to boycott! But jail?

LOL...What a moron, why would you want to destroy your whole reputation by trying to be a tough guy, which he isn't. John Deere used to be a prestigious name, now it's a joke!!
If Deer doesn't want to respect its workers or be responsive to their customers' needs, maybe it's time for a divorce. Deer is the one causing the problem. Let them go to Mexico, and let's see how many tractors they sell here. If the CEO thinks this way, you can be sure the board is in lock step right behind him. The only way things will change is if there is a new CEO, and that won't happen if the stock price remains at its current level and sales remain at current levels. How can you expect him to understand if he never got his hands dirty? Money motivates him so let him watch sales drop and his profit margin evaporate. It would be better for Deer if the CEO was someone who could relate with his workforce and his client base. But this is not the guy you can trust.
Jd s110 last spring. Late fall battery dead if parked 2 weeks. Battery has 6 month guarantee? 300cca batteries 70.00 squallmart? Sheesh! Hood hinge complex fragile plastick bumper to hood. Just flip it to crack it. Bump a bush? Not even able to bumper a shrub? Conndeere sux! Jd store shut down in large town, medium size city. Micro filter bypasses alum in oil!?! 3614 size filter too long triangle side guard removed. Still rubs on hood!?! No room for a reasonable size filter? Jd sux!
John Deere has been putting a stranglehold on farmers for a long time. The manufacturer these tractors that have computer problems. And they won't allow anyone but a technician to work on the equipment. Which leaves farmers equipment down for weeks before they get help.
Their actions and their public plans have already influenced my buying. I just bought a Massey-Ferguson and a Kubota when I was looking for new equipment. BTW, I think John May looks a lot like creepy Tim Walz
I feel SORRY for the workers, but with what JD is doing to the farmers who've had their backs for years, I hope they either revamp their company, including letting the farmers work on their own equipment, firing their CEO, cutting his salary DRASTICLY, LETTING THE BUSINESS GO BANKRUPT, or selling the company to ELON MUSK who would straighten it out in no time. Someone explain how one person, (ceo) actually contributes to the company enough to justify 26 million dollars. If the CEO had any CLASS at all he would cut his salary by 21 million & put it towards the pay & benefits of the workers.
How about a 1000% tariff on Mexican made products and outlawing the use of Deere products on any US Government paid construction project. Use Deere as an example what happens when you try to stick it American workers.
I have always prized JD for its determination to remain American and keep its outsourcing to a minimum but I saw, even back in the 80s, when William Hewitt retired from the Chair and put the reins of the company in other than the Deere family, there was a tendency to veer off the path of providing good products and service, to maximizing profits--FIRST. I realize that a company cannot operate without some marginal cushion but it still has to exist HERE! I also add that the mass outsourcing to offshore manufacturers by so many other companies has really hurt America and its workforce. I actually agree with Trump to hit EVERYONE who rides the profit train with tariffs. Years ago the Japanese motorcycle industry tried to bury the only remaining American manufacturer by dumping its products here at cost or below cost (far cheaper than you could buy the same thing in Japan). HD went to President Reagan who immediately nailed the imports with tariffs to equalize the industry. It's time to do it again, even to the domestic brands who are trying to maximize profits beyond extortion...
They added all that junk to hamsting you so you could not repair your equipment and they could suck your wallet dry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The mowers and smaller tractors were made overseas and imported through the Port of Baltimore. Just talk to the Warren Transport drivers that move them from Baltimore.
This corporation has abandoned its workers or citizens. Let us get rud of them and start a bew vompany that doesn't require a conputer software ok for its tractors. Let us put a tractor like the old ones, it. Can be done!!!!
What a shame that this once great company has lost its way. Once again leads hip decided they are much smarter and know better than there customers. I think maybe John Deere had better take a lesson from the beer company who turned up there nose at their customers. And I have always been a fan and user of John Deere equipment,always was top of the line. As I said at the beginning WHAT A SHAME !!!
Maximizing profit and not caring about their consumers is the reason the United Healthcare CEO was ended. They should look at themselves to see if they can find a way to subdue their greed and care a little for the consumer. They'll lower their cost but the consumer will never see a reduction in cost especially when a 200% tariff is applied.
Happened years ago here in Australia. Toft Cane harvesters made in Bundaberg Qld shifted manufacturing plant to South America cane farmers and contractors thought they would be getting a cheaper harvester. No chance a new case that was Toft or John Deer cane harvester here in Australia is just under a 1 million dollors Australian Dollors.
Who's the best alternative farm equipment manufacturer to Deere? Which company will take advantage of Deere's stumble, while still providing quality products to our farmers?
Having spent my entire professional career in manufacturing, I can tell you that this is all about greed. I’ve seen this show for 45 years. The privileged class has no loyalty to this nation. They’ll say it’s about free markets and how tariffs harm us. Now I’ve been around the world as an engineer and what they don’t tell you is that other economies place tariffs or disguised tariffs on American goods. If you doubt me, take a look if you go abroad. American goods cannot be found. So let the chips fall where they may….. They promised that with free trade there would be more jobs for the American people, but in fact it was bullocks. The American middle class has been hollowed out and the wealth gap is the widest it’s ever been.
My son had bought John Deere tractor. It was used but still he has to buy John Deere parts. I hope other things will work because I don’t wanna spend his money with John Deere. That company needs to go under that CEO needs to see what it’s like to be poor.
When John Deere started having CEO's that was in the Deere bloodline the products went to crap. From 8400 down through the 20 series were the best tractors made.
We own 2 JD tractors and will not be buying another one unless something drastically changes with this anti American company! Our experience has been with repairing them in the past is that prices for parts from the dealership are very high and the have not been helpful when we look for information about repairing them.
These tractors are totally unreilable and with a factory fix because they want factory repair too much electronics on emissions etc. Take to a dealer and leave it there for a month as they don't want one man service engineers to fix on site for these farmers.
As a laid off John Deere employee I have one thing to say to the CEO. Build cost effective equipment for your customers. The models you are building do not work with $4 corn. And enough of the DEI nonsense!
If it’s not built in our country don’t buy it
That’s the problem. America doesn’t manufacture many of the parts necessary for their machinery. Those jobs were shipped overseas a generation ago…
Lol 😂 you’ve never shopped at Walmart have you. Have you been to a Mall before? How about buying or repairing a car?
Where do you think everything gets made in the Carrier driving engines transmissions computer boards it is an America boy and Donald Trump's not through messing your country up and I'm laughing I'm wealthy and retired and watching what's gonna happen to you people that voted for the biggest garbage in America.
Walk away from buying John Deere, let Mexico buy their junk!
What's wrong can't you stand free enterprise in America, You elected Donald Trump the biggest garbage in America wait till the next 2 years go by I'm gonna be laughing at how he destroys everything around you.
Isn't this the same company that made it so you couldn't even work on your own equipment? F them!
This CEO is a pile of it !!
It seems like CEOs think they can do whatever they want ....destroying customer care and service and sometimes they think they are invisible.....just recently that's been proven false ......
Go woke
Go broke
No wonder people admire guys like Luigi!
He can suck it
America made John Deere what it is today. They show their appreciation by SCREWIING US....😮
When you build farm equipment and then prevent buyers from accessing software to make adjustments and repairs, your equipment has little value to the end consumer.
Buy something else.
If you build it somewhere besides here make sure that’s where you sell it. Corporate headquarters should be where the plants are
The ceo needs to go or be forced out and a big cut in pay because he is not worth the money
Don't you love it when a company puts themselves out of buisness.BYE BYE John Deere.
I’m glad I bought a Kubota. The Deere ?? Particularly the Compact tractors have way too much plastic. I learned they have lawn tractors that have plastic transmissions that fail early, the replacement very expensive and just another plastic transmission that will fail soon too. When I looked at their compact tractors, I found them expensive and cheaply made. A went with Kubota and after 8yrs with the Kubota which at that time was cheaper and superior. And unlike Deere whose parts are made all over the world by a whole host of vendors. Kubota is 100 percent Kubota and no darned plastic! I hope Trump spanks their a”” , they got it coming for screwing Farmers!
Trump is awesome! We need Trump in office RIGHT NOW!!!
Keep Jobs in the USA 🇺🇸 👌 😊
If they persist down this path, they could end up like Farmall did. The farmers are not the group to mess with! Who needs a $26 million dollar annual salary? This is so ridiculous it is pathetic!! Take from the needy and give to the greedy!! They could fall like other American Iconic Firms if they don't mend their ways!
if John Deere wants to go to Mexico!! , let them go!!! we don’t need the Muthafukas!!
we have Kubota!!
Too late for that to happen
They better wake up. They need the farmers, the farmers don't need them. There are plenty of companies to choose from
don't buy John Deere
We have a few old ones, but all our new ones are Case and will continue to be. We even changed the ATV's and mowers to Kubota.
J D has been screwing farmers for years.
force out Deer top management
top management makes to much money
Yup Deere has been gaining market share in all classes worldwide by screwing farmers
The moving the facility to Mexico is a slap a face of American farmer and worker that made that company. Also the locking the software is a disgrace.
Farmed with JD for 30+ years. Sold it all, never again!
The reason they're going to Mexico is bigger bonuses for the CEOs of John Deere. There's other farm equipment out. There is just as good or better than john deere,
If John Deere were alive today he would be livid with the direction of the company. For him it was about helping farmers for this group of corporate raiders, its just about greed & profit. Nothing more nothing less.
Corporate greed, not about the American farmer or worker. They continue on shaky ground with their corporate drama.
IM DONE WITH DEERE there over priced and reliability has steadily gone down , im going back to older equipment that i can still repair my self .
I've seen more reliable LOW QUALITY CHINESE CRAP than the JD JUNK!
You said it greed. no CEO is worth 23.7 million dollars in pay and stock options. If the workers were not there JD would have no product to sell and create the more than 10 Billion dollars in profit I've seen some of the product that have come out of mexico the reliability is but a fraction of what comes from the USA. I am talking abut high end companies who thought they would do just as JD is moving to lower cost. shameful and nothing but greed. Software lock the same thing
No one is worththat. Walk across my swimming 🏊♂️
That CEO is messing with the wrong people. Read the room. The Farmers aren't going to back you in this fight.
As an old Farmer friend once said to me; “John Deere, you can buy better, but can’t pay more!”
Good for Trump
John deere has been taking advantage of farmers for years .intentionally make repairs impossible without taking tractors to dealer ,basically extortion ...shame on john deere
John Deere doesn’t want you to work on your own tractor, Ford doesn’t want you to work on your own Truck. You don’t own it you’re just renting it even if you do on it.
Poor quality. Poor tech. Poor parts. Poor equipment. Poor future!
Greedy CEO needs to go away
I'll tell you what we can do we can boycott not buy anything that's a John Deere product unless there's zero alternative and they'll change their mind over it or their shareholders will go Belly Up😮
Farmers should move to Massey Fergison.
SEND THE CEO PACKING
DOWN. THE ROAD KEEP
JOBS in the USA for working
People in the USA 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
And Stop Raping THE Farmer 8th
The necessary cost cutting messure would be firing their overpaid CEO!!!!!!
Nothing runs like a Deere especially one leaving America.
Don’t. Buy John. Dear 👎👎👎👎👎👎
Don't .. bite the hand
That feeds you.
Overpriced overengineered undelivering products. Fleecing the consumer. Screw this dude
No different than any other business these days cut their cost and raise the prices at the same time until people get sick of them an will never buying their stuff again and they go out of business.
The Board and top executives should be replaced at once. Let the workers receive stock options and bonuses. Stop the economic disaster of letting American jobs go to Mexico. And the Congress should pass legislation to stop all manufacturers from letting "intelluctual property rights" and software from ever being the key to the repair of all products made or sold in the U.S. Such legislation should include all products made anywhere as well.
This is a perfect picture of corporate Greed!!!!!!

Trump must put this CEO in jail.
They could share a cell. One crook criticizing another.
Trump is a criminal. Put in jail. Watch your groceries to increase in price. American stupidity
Jail?! Seriously ? he didn't do anything against the law.. feel free to boycott but jail?
The only ones that need to go to jail are those in our government who took an oath to serve our nation but instead secretly swore allegiance to I$ßael instead of their own country and their own people and that's 99% of them!

Way to destroy your brand John Deere!!!
Like everything else, the consumer will decide John Deere's fate.
Computer is pitiful and rips you 2500.00 and takes 2 to 3 weeks to fix it
Rip off
John Deere is overrated. Plenty of better equipment out there now
Switch to CASEIH OR CNH and leave John Deere out in the cold 🥶
case ih and cnh are the same company
@AllisonRoberts-z7o The only difference is one is painted Red and the Other one is painted Blue
Junk , the new deer ain't worth buying
Make it 1,000 percent foreign tariffs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Say goodbye to John Deere. Make way for new innovations and with the engineering that exceeds John Deere. America is the land of opportunity!
JUNK EQUIPMENT! Its just a name!
Guess Caterpillar will see an uptick in sales !!!!
Is it only John Deere manufacturing farm equipment? What about Caterpillar ?
Boycott works!
If Deer doesn't want to respect its workers or be responsive to their customers' needs, maybe it's time for a divorce. Deer is the one causing the problem.

Deere has been paving the way for Agco to be top dog 🤷♂️
Buy China made farms machinery…better quality, more modern & much much cheaper with guaranteed parts.
Remove the electronics no only on the tractors but on our automobiles also....Electronics are a ripoff....
They added all that junk to hamsting you so you could not repair your equipment and they could suck your wallet dry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loose woke deere
I have bought lawn mowers and tractors from Deere but there are other brands.
The mowers and smaller tractors were made overseas and imported through the Port of Baltimore. Just talk to the Warren Transport drivers that move them from Baltimore.
All these corp are nuts
If i cant fix i wont buy it.
This corporation has abandoned its workers or citizens. Let us get rud of them and start a bew vompany that doesn't require a conputer software ok for its tractors. Let us put a tractor like the old ones, it. Can be done!!!!

Greed...
John Deere can still make product for US sale and the equipment manufacture in Mexico will be sold overseas.
Maximizing profit and not caring about their consumers is the reason the United Healthcare CEO was ended. They should look at themselves to see if they can find a way to subdue their greed and care a little for the consumer.

Gates is a shareholder ....
Board needs to replace CEO. He has a fiduciary duty to his shareholders and this isn’t the way.
Who's the best alternative farm equipment manufacturer to Deere? Which company will take advantage of Deere's stumble, while still providing quality products to our farmers?
Ceos should not receive these large rewards eithergive it to the employees or put it back into the company you so dearly love
The company also made it nearly impossible to work on the equipment yourself and extremely expensive computer and sensors.
I have 5 John Deere tractors but they are the last I will buy until this CEO is kicked out !!!
Having spent my entire professional career in manufacturing, I can tell you that this is all about greed. I’ve seen this show for 45 years. The privileged class has no loyalty to this nation. They’ll say it’s about free markets and how tariffs harm us. Now I’ve been around the world as an engineer and what they don’t tell you is that other economies place tariffs or disguised tariffs on American goods. If you doubt me, take a look if you go abroad. American goods cannot be found. So let the chips fall where they may….. They promised that with free trade there would be more jobs for the American people, but in fact it was bullocks. The American middle class has been hollowed out and the wealth gap is the widest it’s ever been.
JD is not the farmer’s friend and partner anymore. I sense an opportunity for a smart entrepreneur.
There's others to look at would be better than paying for the name.
Do you know how shops like the one i worked in saved John Deere's millions. No union low pay but on the bright side. I became a really good machinist.
My son had bought John Deere tractor. It was used but still he has to buy John Deere parts. I hope other things will work because I don’t wanna spend his money with John Deere. That company needs to go under that CEO needs to see what it’s like to be poor.
No John Deere for me!
Deere had no choice. If 20-30% tariffs take effect that’s gonna drive prices higher. The American farmer will suffer even more!
I have a 332 2005 skid steer has been and still is a real workhorse. Hate to hear and and see what John Deere has become!
When John Deere started having CEO's that was in the Deere bloodline the products went to crap. From 8400 down through the 20 series were the best tractors made.
Johndeere needs to be boycotted,lots of other good brands of farm equipment made out there
We own 2 JD tractors and will not be buying another one unless something drastically changes with this anti American company!
Our experience has been with repairing them in the past is that prices for parts from the dealership are very high and the have not been helpful when we look for information about repairing them.
F- - - Deer
These tractors are totally unreilable and with a factory fix because they want factory repair too much electronics on emissions etc. Take to a dealer and leave it there for a month as they don't want one man service engineers to fix on site for these farmers.
