Pros

Everyone who works at GE is intelligent, I am impressed by the level of all the engineers and at the work they do.

Cons

There is little work-life balance, people often make work their life, and their personal lives suffer. For engineering, the locations are not desirable.

Pros

Extremely flexible, plenty of opportunity for promotion and relocation. Strong policies and procedures in place. GE Capital better place to work though then the industrial side.

Cons

Industrial businesses not as "GE" as other areas. People set in their ways a little more as they are predominatly from heritage businesses acquired by GE.
