mead107 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 With all the work that they just signed and the backlog of work on the books it looks like greedy GE wants more. We have hired 200 new hourly to ramp up for all the work over this year. For the last 3 years they have been hiring at $10 dollars less per hour.

KD in CA Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 So what is the $/hr they're making coming in? Yes, this would be important information. $10/hr less than what? A million? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mead107 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Share Posted October 2, 2013 Generators and turbines for power plants. Plus winds HQs and the new batterie plant that employs about 300 people Wages now start at $15 and go up for hourly. GE has not been in the top 100 places to work for in a very long time.
