      Pros

      Once you make a name for yourself it is a fun place. Engineers have a lot of freedom to play with technology. Some of the subject matter is very interesting. Pay is pretty good.

      Cons

      Paperwork for everything, Online training for everything. They are trying to turn every job into a manual. Every decision flows through 2 or three top level engineers so if you are a young engineer you better get good at presentations and taking criticism. Tons of EGO.

      Pros

      If you love manufacturing and you're in Healthcare, Energy or Aviation, it's not a bad start.

      Cons

      Long hours, underpaid, and since you change positions every 6 months there is no opportunity to build expertise in anything. Consider this last point strongly since it will make finding a job outside GE difficult.

      GE is a great opportunity, but beware of expectations.

      Pros

      GE is a great company with an amazing reputation. There is a lot of opportunity inside of GE Transportation and GE as a company. The benefits package is said to be incredible.

      Cons

      GE is going to work you very hard. Depending on your role with GE, vacations and time off become non-existent. There are always calls 24-hrs a day (part of being a global company), and 60-hour weeks are the norm....not the exception.
