      Pros

      Working for GE Transportation can be a rewarding experience depending on what your specific job function is and which product team you are working for. Overall the products that are being worked on have a degree of intrigue associated with them which allows for interesting job responsibilities. The ability to work in on the conceptual part of the job and then go out to the field, in the locomotive/rail environment, is probably one of the most rewarding parts of this job.

      Cons

      Depending on which product you are working for, management is not very employee inclusive and this comes from the top down. Instead of treating employees as individuals many in management will treat employees rather as a number (property) which does not foster a high morale work environment. There are of course always exceptions to the rule, however based on which product you are working for, coming from the top down this is how things are done at GE. They are good at managing technical information, but very poor at knowing how to manage people, processes, and policy.

      Pros

      GE is a very competitive business, they make products that they can sell for a profit. Being an engineer it is a great opportunity to get involved with the business side of the products. You will learn not only how to create robust designs but also how to establish the value of different features.

      Cons

      Competitiveness can be a positive as well as a negative. There are a lot of really talented employees at GE, and at the end of the year you will find yourself being rated against your co-workers. If you perform well and work hard you will get recognized, however if you don't you might need to seek out alternative employment.
