Pros

Education, visibility, etc. are all pros at GE. They do a great job of training their employees. Challenging work is also a pro.

Cons

Pay is by far the biggest con. They used to be known for average pay and above average benefits, but they now have below average healthcare. Pay is still satisfactory, but you can get better elsewhere.

Pros

Global company with broad opportunities in multiple fields and locations. Provides opportunities to work on large, global projects with wide impact.

Cons

Very bureaucratic. Too much effort is put into making all of the businesses the "same" rather than allowing each business to be the best in their respective markets. The GE management machine has created many managers with broad experience, but little depth, which leads to poor decision making.

Pros

Good career development, generally good colleagues and team mates and competency of senior management is generally quite good. Diverse range of career opportunities and locations if one is flexible and interested in that

Cons

Working hours can be intense
