Pros

The obvious reasons to work at GE are its excellent history and reputation, wide breadth of industries, excellent training and many, many opportunities. There are endless types of jobs, locations and industries within GE. Less obvious reasons to work at GE are the excellent people. Not only is the GE leadership top notch, but the competency of the average employee is extremely high. Most people want to get the job done. People are very smart and very passionate about their jobs. The size and influence of GE is impressive. Whenever you encounter a problem in your job, you can tap the entire company's resources to help. Lastly, the global nature of many of GE's businesses make it an exciting place to work. I have friends and collegues all over the world and have had many opportunites to travel around the world.

Cons

Work/life balance is not always the best at GE. Additionally, GE's strict penny pinching can get tiresome.

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.
