      Not a good place to work for

      Finance manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary above industry average. Moving around different functions may be easier given the size of the company.

      Cons

      Nepotism, backstabbing, and discrimination ran rampant in the GE division I worked. Management is blatant about "company over family" philosophy. You have to be a "GE guy" otherwise you are out. The stock price was $50 fifteen years ago and now is $25, which truly reflects the direction of the company, going downward.

      Good company and department. Benefits are good.

      Spb: manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You will be recognized for good work and also for not so good work. You do need to perform to do well as General Electric.

      Cons

      Fairly old school management style; focus on short term goals perhaps in spite of long term success. Systems could use some updating.

      Typical Large Company

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Benefits seemed about average with other large companies where I have worked. - There are a lot of opportunities for advancement.

      Cons

      - The culture seemed more focused on the individual and getting ahead rather that working as a team to get the job done. - Very demanding expectations. They seem to have less focus on work/life balance than other large companies where I have worked.
