      Low growth conglomerate, struggling under the weight of its own hubris

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      some vestiges of its former glory remain in its instant name recognition, which is helpful on a resume

      Cons

      it is simply too big to be innovative anymore and it is disheartening to watch desperate people who have clawed their way to the top, sometimes clamboring over their bosses' heads to get face time with their bosses boss, stab each other in the back to hold their positions in the midst of all the layoffs over the last five years.

      Never trust GE

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good pay, that's about all the good there is with this company. The benefits are good for the most part

      Cons

      Dirty place to work. Never believe anything the company tells you they lie about everything they tell the city, the state and their workers.

      The two happiest days of my (professional) life, the day GE hired me and the day I resigned.

      Pros

      - Compensation & benefits were decent - About 1/3 of the people you work with are truly pleasant to work with - The company name caries prestige

      Cons

      God, where to begin... - The majority of leadership I encountered were incredibly demanding of their subordinates, but rarely held themselves accountable for anything - Be prepared to spend a sizable amount of time per day on CYA activities; seriously this will become your new part time job - Get used to senior leadership having 'favorites' and God help you if you're not one of them - Do you like a 40 hour work week? Double it. - Don't care for profanity in meetings? No one cares, get used to it. - Need support from a leader to resolve an item at work? You'd better hope you've done something for them lately or it's not going to happen.
