Pros

You are surrounded by intellegent, hard working people willing to help you learn and grow.

Cons

Employee morale is at an all time low. Long hours are the norm rather than the exception.

Pros

Clearly, one the best reasons to work for General Electric is the fact that it is such a well-known company with a history of excellence. GE is one of the most recognized names in industry and looks great on any resume. Additionally, the leadership programs that GE offers are first rate. As a member of the IMLP program I was given constant exposure to the leadership team at the company. Also, as an IMLP I had my choice of some of the most interesting projects and would be sought out by project leaders.

Cons

- Hard to meet everyone as company is so large - Relocation Stipend could be better

Pros

Colleagues are phenomenal to work & socialize with. The business retains strong corporate/parent sponsorship despite continual challenges to deliver against expectations. Great opportunities for career development while executing in a difficult environment.

Cons

The company continues to struggle for a coherent market identity due to it's legacy of acquisitions; after 5 years of integration attempts only recently have the silos started to melt and "GE" penetration taken effect. There is constant leadership turnover as the heritage managers start to fade and the GE-fed talent moves across the corporate umbrella.
