Thread regarding General Electric Co. layoffs

GE did bring many good things to life

Don't dump on the entire company for the mistakes of the few at the top for not seeing the shifting landscape in power gen. Apparently all the bad leaders are replaced by good leaders.

AT&T missed the boat on wireless and internet by staying with long distance revenues bit too long. GE missed the boat on shift to distributed and renewable power gen by betting on fossil fuels too long. We know how it ended for AT&T (name got acquired by SBC, company died). GE's next chapter is not written yet. They have a chance to reinvent themselves and stay around another 130 years. They also could go the way of AT&T.

Not dead money. Yet. No one knows how the new leaders are going to run the company.

at&t is alive. Not AT&T. SBC bought the name from fire sale of AT&T assets. Don't be fooled by name.

GM-new bought it's own assets from GM-old bankruptcy.

GE is not in that kind of dire straits. If there is a battery breakthrough of 20%+ improvement, or GT competitors dig in for a price was, it could get worse for GE.

Last I heard AT&T was still alive. Better stock price too.

However, many of those things and businesses keep getting sold off. Just look at John's plan for what he plans to keep as part of GE when everything is all said and done and it is not much of the overall legacy of this once great company.
