GE has Changed - Recensione dipendente - IM Project Manager, Operations presso GE

For 32 years GE had always said if you were a top performer you had a job. The layoffs in late November 2017 were not based on performance, or seniority, but on where you sat. In my division Digital Coretech 200 of their most highly skilled people were let go because they had been awarded the privilege of working from home in return for being a top performer. The 200 people we laid off because they did not sit in one of 4 locations which include 3 VPs and 5 Directors. The fear is until GE stock gets back up top $50 a share activist investors are going to influence decision making. You need to have an exit strategy if you work for GE, they have become just another corporate employer where employees tend to get looked at as a commodity.
