Stellantis plans to cut about 400 jobs among its nonunion engineering and software staff in the United States.

The company provided a statement Friday that suggested a challenging industry picture as the reason. It said the cuts, which are separate from other reductions affecting union-represented workers announced in recent months, would be effective March 31. Stellantis owns the Jeep, Ram, Chrysler, Dodge and Fiat brands.

 

 

“As the auto industry continues to face unprecedented uncertainties and heightened competitive pressures around the world, Stellantis continues to make the appropriate structural decisions across the enterprise to improve efficiency and optimize our cost structure. After rigorous organizational reviews, Stellantis confirms that we will reduce our engineering/technology and software organizations by about 2% in the U.S.,” according to the statement provided by spokeswoman Jodi Tinson.
