Pros

Great experience and people to learn from. Looks great on the resume. The company has many opportunities for development and you can take your career in any direction that you want to go. The people were extremely friendly and welcoming to the company. You can talk to your senior manager when ever you need to, no need to schedule an appointment. They give you plenty of responsibility, as much as you can handle. This gives you direct vision by upper management and opens the potential for career progression.

Cons

Some of the locations are not ideal, but you could transfer within the company to another location that may be more suiting for you.

Pros

Exciting industry, good opportunities all over the country. Having the GE resume will look good on your resume later on. If you complete a leadership program, your opportunities for advancement are excellent within the company.

Cons

long hours, getting stuck doing the "dirty" work. don't always get to see end result of your work. GE has a very strong corporate culture. It's easy to get lost and mixed up in the corporate/cubicle culture. Sometimes, work seems meaningless and non-value adding. If you are working in business, GE does not encourage you to go back and get your MBA.

Pros

GE will pay for your mba with no contract. i believe they will also pay for your undergrad if you can get into GE prior to getting your bachelors. You will also get to know a lot about processes. GE is a process driven company and you the process you learn here can be taken into any business inside or outside of GE and be used. I know I will use the skills i learned here to start my own business and work within a business to bussiness selling environment. There is also a hundered different places to move.

Cons

Too big and you can get lost in the mix
