      Still has great potential, but bureaucracy stifles growth.

      Pros

      Global company with broad opportunities in multiple fields and locations. Provides opportunities to work on large, global projects with wide impact.

      Cons

      Very bureaucratic. Too much effort is put into making all of the businesses the "same" rather than allowing each business to be the best in their respective markets. The GE management machine has created many managers with broad experience, but little depth, which leads to poor decision making.

      Pros

      Good career development, generally good colleagues and team mates and competency of senior management is generally quite good. Diverse range of career opportunities and locations if one is flexible and interested in that

      Cons

      Working hours can be intense

      Do not expect any practical support or cooperation from colleagues or middle management

      Pros

      Opportunity to work on large transactions with global reach. GE experience maybe valued outside GE.

      Cons

      Forced ranking remains part of the culture. This creates an enviornment that fosters intense workloads with no meaningfull support from colleagues or management. No practical direction is provided along the way, other than the directive to get the job done. Easy to find yourself over extended with projects that have been thrown over the wall by middle management.. These tactics breed a culture of silos and a lack of cooperation in order to avoid even more demands beyond what is realistic.
