Pros

Career opportunities, diversity of the workforce, global teams. An employee can move form Aircraft engines to credit cards to water desalination if they so desire, this is the value of a conglomerate. Then they can move from India to the USA to Singapore. The career training is second-to-none IMHO.

Cons

By design some bureaucracy naturally exists in a company this size, so if the expectation is that all decisions and processes are nimble, one need to gauge their expectations accordingly.

Pros

Great company that looks great on your resume. The have a corporate culture that is lived and understood by every employee. They offer pleanty of training which is something you can learn from and experience you can walk away with.

Cons

Extremely large company where it is easy to get lost in the enormity of the organization. Managers are hit or miss as with any organization. If you are a temperary employee you can find yourself on your own much of the time with little guidance and support.

Pros

working at GE is nice because they are flexible (outside of a Corporate or high profile office). They allow for me to work days from home when necessary. GE offers a competitive benefits package.

Cons

Working at GE encompasses very long hours and not a lot of personal thanks or monetary recognition for your hard work. They will get everything out of you and ask for even more - very demanding. As a woman who has been fortunate to be promoted up several times, it still feel like it's the old Boys GE.
