Pros

Established platforms and operating mechanisms help set a framework for career progression. Opportunities for advancement within an organization exist, and unlimited opportunity for global work experience.

Cons

Stifling politics---there is a layer of reality and then a layer of uber-spin before any information can get to senior management. I was amazed by how much more acting and story preparation took place as opposed to real communication, problem solving and execution. GE's internal business culture is not woman friendly. Diversity is well understood to be for appearance only.
