(Hartford Courant, 1/14/19)
The president of Electric Boat on Monday delivered what’s become an annual refrain of good economic news: Submarine construction is booming, with 900 workers expected to be hired in Connecticut in 2019.
“So again this year I’m pleased to be able to provide a message of positivity and optimism for both what’s being accomplished at Electric Boat, but also for what we look forward to in the future,” Jeffrey Geiger, president of the subsidiary of General Dynamics Corp., said at EB’s annual outlook meeting in Groton.
