Pros

Opportunity for different interesting assignments. Pay and medical are better than most large companies. Employee morale was improved after Jack Welsh left as CEO. The variety of different equipment worked with and the different students I was able to train kept my employment interesting. I trained Navy Petty Officers on AEGIS, Shield of the Fleet on several different systems. Also, NASA radar technicians on MOTR, Multiple Object Tracking Radar after the tragic Challenger Space Shuttle accident. My previous RCA employment was counted as seniority towards retirement when a contract was acquired. As a retiree, I am grateful that I stayed the course and made it,

Cons

Neutron Jack came in and wiped out 35%. of the staff. Remainder had to become overachievers.

Pros

Clearly, one the best reasons to work for General Electric is the fact that it is such a well-known company with a history of excellence. GE is one of the most recognized names in industry and looks great on any resume. Additionally, the leadership programs that GE offers are first rate. As a member of the IMLP program I was given constant exposure to the leadership team at the company. Also, as an IMLP I had my choice of some of the most interesting projects and would be sought out by project leaders.

Cons

- Hard to meet everyone as company is so large - Relocation Stipend could be better
