Pros

- Leadership development programs are incredible - Work with very diverse teams, some of the smartest people I have and ever will meet - Ability to work in several different business models under one GE umbrella

Cons

- LONG hours in finance roles - Expectations are difficult to meet, the bar is always one level higher than current performance - The goal of CFO jobs is primarily to meet the operating plan numbers... using whatever levers necessary

Pros

One of the leading companies in teh security industry, good pay for out of college graduates as well as benefits.

Cons

career paths not well defined, this has been defined several times by upper managements but never really put into practice.

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.
