Right. The protection for france expires in dec but were going to move work their now. Get real
This is fake and would not be cost effective
The products, tooling, and engineering / drafting systems are different.
If anything, more Greenville gas turbine work will be shifted to Belfort, France to meet Alstom purchase agreement with French Government to hire and retain more French workers.
This will be the jobs competition Greenville will face, especially since a large amount of gas turbine sales are outside USA, and dollar is at a high compared to many other currencies. These are the things that determine where work goes, and where cuts occur.
