General Electric has been a household name since 1892 when they bought Thompson Electric, Houston Electric, and Edison General Electric Company. Thomas Edison founded his company in 1878 to sell his incandescent light bulb. When GE acquired all the assets from Edison General Electric Company they also enlisted its founder who contributed to GE by allowing them to use his patents and he remained a consultant to the company for many years. (The Editors of Encyclopedia Britannica, 2020) GE makes a very wide range of products and services. Their consumer products are where a wide range of their products and services occur; however, GE makes most of its sales to the U.S. Department of Defense. GE has a remarkably diverse product line the market segments they work in are Power, Aviation, Capital, Healthcare, and Renewable Energy. Some of those product categories they make products or services for are: sensor-based measurement and asset condition monitoring, power generation products, renewable energy, and energy services, water & process technologies (Equipment, Chemicals and Services), healthcare technologies and services, mining solutions and services, life science research, pharma manufacturing, and diagnostic imaging, Transportation technology, supplies, and services, lighting solutions and services, aviation engines, components, systems, and services, electricity transmission, distribution, conversion, and consulting, software connected machines and devices, life science research, home appliances, pharma manufacturing, and diagnostic imaging, and transportation technology, supplies, and services.
Download or read book Electric City written by Julia Kirk Blackwelder and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For seven decades the General Electric Company maintained its manufacturing and administrative headquarters in Schenectady, New York. Electric City: General Electric in Schenectady explores the history of General Electric in Schenectady from the company’s creation in 1892 to the present. As one of America’s largest and most successful corporations, GE built a culture centered around the social good of technology and the virtues of the people who produced it. At its core, GE culture posited that engineers, scientists, and craftsmen engaged in a team effort to produce technologically advanced material goods that served society and led to corporate profits. Scientists were discoverers, engineers were designers and problem solvers, and craftsmen were artists. Historian Julia Kirk Blackwelder has drawn on company records as well as other archival and secondary sources and personal interviews to produce an engaging and multi-layered history of General Electric’s workplace culture and its planned (and actual) effects on community life. Her research demonstrates how business and community histories intersect, and this nuanced look at race, gender, and class sets a standard for corporate history.

Download or read book Lights Out written by Thomas Gryta and published by Houghton Mifflin. This book was released on 2020 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could General Electric--perhaps America's most iconic corporation--suffer such a swift and sudden fall from grace? This is the definitive history of General Electric's epic decline, as told by the two Wall Street Journal reporters who covered its fall. Since its founding in 1892, GE has been more than just a corporation. For generations, it was job security, a solidly safe investment, and an elite business education for top managers. GE electrified America, powering everything from lightbulbs to turbines, and became fully integrated into the American societal mindset as few companies ever had. And after two decades of leadership under legendary CEO Jack Welch, GE entered the twenty-first century as America's most valuable corporation. Yet, fewer than two decades later, the GE of old was gone. Lights Out examines how Welch's handpicked successor, Jeff Immelt, tried to fix flaws in Welch's profit machine, while stumbling headlong into mistakes of his own. In the end, GE's traditional win-at-all-costs driven culture seemed to lose its direction, which ultimately caused the company's decline on both a personal and organizational scale. Lights Out details how one of America's all-time great companies has been reduced to a cautionary tale for our times.

Download or read book Men and Volts the Story of General Electric written by John Winthrop Hammond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men and Volts, the Story of General Electric John Winthrop Hammond spent more than three years in collecting the historical material for this volume. In 1922, when he started this work, many of the pioneers of the electrical industry were still living, and he was able to get the story from their own lips. Hammond had the temperament of the true historian; he waded through records, he tracked traditional stories to their sources. And because he saw the epic of electricity in terms of men, the story he wrote was a human one. To him, this history was a labor of love. John Hammond died in 1934. The three hundred thousand word manuscript which he had prepared was later edited and condensed to approximately its present dimensions by Arthur Pound, well-known writer on industrial subjects. With a few minor changes, it is here presented. Because Hammond's manuscript closed with the year 1922, a brief Epilogue has been added, highlighting the major achievements of the succeeding years. In addition, there has been included as an Appendix the statement presented be fore the Temporary National Economic Committee by Owen D. Young, Honorary Chairman of the Board.
