General Electric says cut 700 jobs in power unit in first quarter

NEW YORK (Reuters) - General Electric Co GE.N said on Wednesday it had cut 700 jobs in its power division in the first quarter, and that it was on track to reduce capital expenditure by 25% this year.

The conglomerate’s recent debt refinancing has left it with no debt maturing in 2021, the company said in a conference call to discuss first-quarter earnings.
