      Pros

      GE gives you the opportunity to fulfill all your career goals and recognises and rewards hard work. There is a wealth of on-line resources to help you do your job but not alot of on the job training. The organisation is constantly changing and you have to be flexible - this is something I enjoy as there are always challenges.

      Cons

      There is no work/life balance this is a message that is fed from the top. Deadlines are extremely tight and have to be met often resulting in 50 plus hour weeks and weekend work. The organisation is very short termist and it is often hard to see the longer term strategy. Compensation packages tend to be at market rate on entry but fail to keep pace with competitors after a couple of years in the job.

      Pros

      It encourages the talent inside me to grow and let me share my thoughts to improve or review the job process. Helps me to be resourceful. This means that I'm equipped well and in an effective way in order to find and manage resources on my own to facilitate the execution of job or project in the best optimal way which would be a win-win situation for both company and the customer. The employees are neutral and friendly. There is no politics and leg-pulling culture. One would feel completely independant to execute his job. Of course, a great company with a clear vision and goals and objectives.

      Cons

      The finance and HR sections are a bit nuisance sometimes. The company expects its employees to devote time beyond the working normal hours so that the execution of the jobs or the projects could be carried out in the best way possible. There is a very much work load. Sometimes, it is left upon you to balane the life between job and the family. This makes the task a bit more difficult and stressful. One shocking aspect is that one is expected to initiate the process of visas and related stuff on one's own since the company does not take much responsibility in this regard.
