Topics regarding layoffs at General Electric Co.

Cameras for all!!

We deserve our own cameras. We can buy them cheap online and sneak them into management locations. This is going to be fun fighting fire with fire. Finally we can be flies on the walls. One way streets are over for our aggressors. Empowerment forever... — read more 

Massive Services Layoff - Renewables

Zero posts before the ax fell. Odd for this board to be so, behind the news. Must have laid off anyone who posted here. Congrats, HR. Job well done. Page out of old homewrecker’s handbook.

DOL Audit

Crickets! Thought this would be HUGE. Lol

Dr-g Testing??

Now that pot is legal in NY can GE test you and fire you for pot? And what about hiring can they refuse to hire if you have THB in you system?

Contract Extension

Has this union ever negotiated a 2 year extension deal for Schenectady in the history of this union and company relationship? I’m sure it was originally a 1 year deal. Something fishy is going on here all these rumors on the floor. Is the place... — read more 

Contract Extension

So much confusion. Did I get a raise? We voted on the national extension. Do we get 6 and 6? That’s what we voted for. Do we vote again on this extension or is it over? Am I voted on someone else’s raise? Why haven’t the company had an all hands... — read more

D's Will Be Outnumbered SOON

All this hiring will tilt the population...majority will be T rates once all this hiring is done. And then what....T's will run the show! We will take over leadership and take away the D's power! And then we will take the raise pool in 2 years and... — read more 

All the T’s need to stop complaining and get to work.

All the NEW company has to do is say it’s not worth it let’s move it to another country like the EU or Canada. Unless the cry baby T’s can’t handle it then keep crying unfair labor practices. The American Dream is dead slave labor is the new norm in... — read more

Close The Gap

Larger increases for T’s than D’s. D’s can just buy a new truck every 3rd year vs 2 years now

It makes no sense to expect positive changes

Expecting that something will change for the better at GM would make sense if we actually objected to the working conditions which generally don't suit us. However, how can we expect any change for the better when everyone shrugs their shoulders... — read more 

The playbook exposed

All the GE facilities that are onionized are run basically the same. I say this because I worked at multiple facilities before I retired. GE loves to divide and conquer at the onset of the hiring process. This is done by the hiring of "yes" people... — read more

301 Board Members

If you did the right thing. One of you would make a recommendation at the board meeting to remove the stipend checks. It is our opinion officer who fails to represent its members equally should not be paid additional money from our dues. They... — read more

How many think we got a fair contract?

Is the raise keeping up with inflation? Is the raise keeping up with this crazy healthcare premium? We keep giving and giving thinking the company will keep the 2 way street open. This is an embarrassment of representation for the individuals who... — read more 

Contract prediction

It will get voted in with around 70%-80% yes votes. Another blow to middle class America! I don’t want to hear any complaints from the floor. Get ready to work for sweat shop labor pay.

If inflation is 15% then why…….

……why don’t we get a 15% raise? Company handed over a 9% raise said you split it how ever you want if you don’t take it we will close Schenectady? Is that what’s going on? Last thread was getting good. Now it’s gone!! Well layoffs must be on the way... — read more 

Contract time Schenectady

We all have 1 vote each to use. If I don’t like the contract if the contract does not show pace with inflation Then I’m voting NO. If the contract does not offer better healthcare then I am voting no. Simple!

No News

This column has been silent for a while. Either everyone who normally posts here has been laid off, or they are finally doing their jobs and working. Probably just scared about the contract negotiations and the expected weak contract.

Why So Quiet??

With the spin of Vernova and the combination of Gas + REN shouldn't there be a plethora of layoffs?

Bad vibes

Maybe it's just me and the drop off in motivation in general, but I don't think I've ever worked in a more toxic company. It seems like nobody likes their job anymore, everyone is grumpy and the atmosphere is very unhealthy. Is your perception... — read more 

Hey Look……

Then you have high school graduates who….

Caught a break from a minimum wage job by getting hired. Worked here for about say 15 mins and qualified them selves as an engineer because they watched everyone else process bars. Yep no wonder why they brought back an old timer to fix this mess... — read more 

Rehired pensioner? time away

Top Heavy Vernova

Scot seems all excited about his new leadership team but what exactly are we doing? Is the Chief People Officer the same as HR leader? And what happens to Kelly & the others who were SMO'ed, once the separation is completed??
