MOLINE, Ill. (TND) — Agriculture manufacturer John Deere announced Tuesday it would no longer support “social or cultural awareness” events in response to customer feedback.
The news follows a decision by the company to lay off some 600 workers in Illinois and Iowa ahead of its expansion to Mexico. A spokesperson told The National Desk the move was “in response to market conditions.”

John Deere has shown record profits in the past 3 years according to another site I visit (HERE), yet moves plants to Mexico, then has the balls to say it listens to customer feedback.
