yeah absolutely this. They tried to make their factory in Upstate NY 'lights out' in the 1980's before the technology was ready. It failed miserably. Since then I don't think they have done anything to advance their manufacturing operations in any meaningful way.

Add in that a long history of treating their union employees like garbage has led to a lot of internal disconnect between management, engineering, and labor and you have a situation that is not tuned for long term growth.
