"On Thursday morning, screens at Ford offices displayed a picture of CEO Jim Farley with a slashed circle over his face and the words "F**k RTO" emblazoned above. Social media sites started sharing the pictures, IT staff reset the screens shortly afterwards, and now the hunt is on for the mystery protester. "We're aware of an inappropriate use of Ford's IT technology and we're investigating it," Dave Tovar, Ford spokesman, told the Detroit Free Press."
"In June, the company announced that most salaried employees must be in the office four days a week starting September 1 as part of its return-to-office policy. "Many of our employees have been in the office three or more days per week for some time now," it told Reuters. "We believe working together in person on a day-to-day basis will help accelerate Ford's transformation into a higher growth, higher margin, less cyclical and more dynamic company.""
Conference-room screens at Ford's Dearborn headquarters were briefly hijacked to show a photo of CEO Jim Farley marked with a slashed circle and the words "F**k RTO." IT staff reset the monitors and Ford launched an investigation. Ford spokesman Dave Tovar confirmed an inappropriate use of IT technology is under investigation. The messages' reach beyond Dearborn is unclear and no perpetrator has been identified. Ford announced in June that most salaried employees must work in-office four days weekly from September. The incident drew social media attention and speculation that an IT insider may have accessed networked displays.
