Pros

Good development programs. Hard working and friendly co-workers. Offices are well maintained and usually conveniently located. For the most part, it is very difficult to get fired as long as you work semi-hard and never break your integrity.

Cons

Long hours and pay not up to par with other major corps. Beware of the GE image and culture. You must be willing to fully absorb and accept their near military like operations and handling of affairs. If you cannot not assimilate to the standards and learn the basic jargon associated with a GE employee, you will stick out and eventually alienate yourself from other "GE" employees. Learn to play the game and keep it professional.

Pros

My first job after college and my internship was a great experience. I learned a lot about medical devices and the medical device industry, and I even got promoted to site leader pretty quickly.

Cons

My training was nonexistent; I learned everything from medical device service manuals. In my region, a billion-dollar company offered no bonuses or decent pay, and the management was micromanaging and horrible.
