      The admired GE is a decaying company

      Pros

      experience, some visibility, learning the job. Teaches you why one shouldn't work for a big company if one's smart

      Cons

      They work you like a dog and pay you like crap. Even the stock is crappy now. Plus, the culture is dog eat dog. I have seen so much incompetent people being promoted it's really sad. GE needs real leaders in these times and the existing managers are just scums. Only at executive level you may see some bright people, otherwise it's carnivourous animals eating each other.

      Pros

      High compensation, cutting edge work and a good brand name.

      Cons

      Graphics market is becoming increasingly competitive and even though Nvidia has been great in execution over past few years, it is going to get tough in future, especially with Intel and AMD becoming a competitive threat to Nvidia in the discrete graphics market.

      Pros

      Huge company, lots of different kinds of opportunities, pretty amenable to people switching jobs. Great pay and benefits. Management seems willing to make the tough decisions necessary to keep the place open and profitable, including trimming the dead weight. Most of my co-workers are very smart, rational people. Like anywhere, promotion depends on luck as well as ability.

      Cons

      Sometimes there is an attitude of "We are GE, we don't make mistakes". Hubris makes it a little hard to sell ideas that come from outside. We are unionized and our labor costs are absurd. This is headwind for everything we do, and frankly we have to sometimes use less-than--the-best materials to keep costs down.
