Get ready GE Greenville. I just got out of a closed-door HR meeting. Across-the-board layoffs 40% hourly and 55% salary. That's 1042 hourly and 784 salary. layoffs will go back 10 years in service.

Scott T, did you start this rumor?
They will keep hiring:
-
Specific roles
-
Post jobs to fill with preferred candidates before layoff packages are delivered.
Doesn’t mean there won’t be layoffs
So why do they keep hiring MAU? It doesn’t make sense, someone please explain?
Layoffs packages will be delivered the Week of November 13
Take all of this with a grain of salt. TheLayoff can be useful, but you simply cannot believe all that people say.
my rules:
-
read between the lines
-
look for patterns
-
look for keywords
-
talk with people on the ground
-
if it sound crazy, it's likely crazy
cheers
t.k.k.
There was no HR meeting today. I’m in Greenville and everyone knows when there’s an important mtg happening. Everyone’s on pins & needles around here. Me personally, I don’t give a flying f.ck. Lay me off I’ll have another job in less than 60 days, probably making more $ and with better benefits. I could use a month’s paid vacation.
I have heard rumors the percentage for layoffs or cuts are north of 30% for Power
By news I mean rumor. It's not news until they sit us down for it.
There are currently 2728 employees total in Greenville right now (excluding Aviation @ Donaldson). If this news is true, it would mean a cut of 66% of those employees.
There’s zero risk posting here, as long as you use a non-GE device to do so. But I agree this post is BS...the ridiculous numbers gave it away. Low IQ troll.
This is all fear mongering fakery. No one who would be in that meeting would risk their job posting on here
Fake news again on this site. No such meeting happened.
and how many HR people will be impacted? they should (along with the executives) be the first to go
This has to be bullsh!t. Not that many people in G’ville!
FAKE NEWS
I read this as the factory and engineering , sourcing , you name it ! Do you understand the order back log is for sh_t? We are staffed for ~ 104 units per year.
there is not 1042 hourly employees total at GE Greenville FAKE NEWS!
So..do we really need someone in corporate making six figures to tell stokes he needs to layoff based upon the pathetic backlog of orders ?
Think we are missing some key info. Is this in regards to just the manufacturing? This doesn't apply to all of GE Power in Gvl right? Any more details?
build plan looks brilliant for the generous. Hey, Siemens is financing some plants maybe GE can do this as well? Oh, wait GE has no money for that...they are too busy paying the corporate leadership to run metrics on a down cycle business.
