Trump and Carrier Corp: The Deal That Saved 1,000 U.S. Jobs
It started with a Thanksgiving Day Tweet from Donald Trump: "I am working hard, even on Thanksgiving, trying to get Carrier to stay in the U.S. MAKING PROGRESS - Will know soon!"
On December 1st, just a week later, President-Elect Trump, Vice-President-Elect Pence and Greg Hayes, President of Carrier Corp's parent company, stood on-stage together and announced that 1,000 jobs would stay in the United States and not relocate to Mexico. It was an extraordinary reversal and Carrier's local workforce couldn't have been happier.
So on the day of the announcement, we set-up a conference call with two highly-respected site selection consultants to get their take on this decision. You'll hear from Larry Gigerich, Managing Director of Ginovus and Michelle Comerford, Industrial & Supply Chain Manager with Biggins Lacy Shapiro, another highly respected site consulting firm. Both firms are members of the Site Selectors Guild.
