great to have on your CV but don't stay... - Talent Acquisition Partner GE Employee Review

Pros

benefits, technology, innovation and good colleagues

Cons

Endless reorganizations followed by rounds of redundancies, no work-life balance at all and poor management . GE pretends to be a meritocracy and claims that you "own your career" but the reality is quite different- favoritism is abundant. And because reorganisation is a constant, there is a valid excuse to promote the "yes" people. Work-life balance is non existent- most people work long hours, answer emails over the weekend and at night. In TA you are constantly struggling between endless and useless team meetings, pipelining for roles that may never open, communicating with candidates on roles that were open, marked as urgent and then cancelled or put on hold; attending training on new tools, lean workouts and still be expected to volunteer for additional projects. Not to mention the monthly KPI reviews- when you need to justify why you are not identifying more diverse candidates and not doing more training on Linkedin!
