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.

Pros

Some opportunities to work on cutting edge technologies and learn from world class professionals.

Cons

-Low respect from management to their people. Lots of bureaucracy, politics and nonsense -Terrible performance evaluation system. It's a relationship-to-your-manager evaluation system, not technical performance evaluation system. -Engineers and researchers have to fight/stable each other for work. Research lab managers are not doing their jobs to find work/project for their people, but whipping them to find work themselves. If people could not find enough work to cover their time, they get low evaluation and suggest to leave.
