Pros

Free masters degree from Georgia Tech (Top 10 Engineer Grad School). Takes ~2.5 years to finish (1 extra year than traditional grad school). So for 1 extra year, you also get 2+ years work experience, 2+ years of salary/401(k) match, travel the country, and build a great resume.

Cons

Masters degree doesn't earn you a salary bump with the company. The two raises received while "on-program" will bring you to the same level you'd have been at just getting your masters degree.

Pros

Great experience; 'Trial-By-Fire' experience; Opportunities for growth & career advancement; Hard to get fired if you are hard-working; GE Energy will look very good on your resume.

Cons

Very political - terms such as "back-stabbing" and "thrown under the bus" are very commonly used to describe employee relations amongst other GE Energy employees; Company suffers from many of the common stereotypes associated with large corporations; Salary adjustments (raises) are very small, and only happen every 14 to 24 months. Promotions within the company do not warrant salary increases - increased responsibilities, change in job title (promotion) do not warrant a raise - no comparative analysis is performed.
