GE...not so great.

Pros

It looks really good on your resume. The company's name has some prestige to it.

Cons

Top management would not talk to you if you were a lowly analyst. They work you to the bone and don't pay you enough. Although GE is the top company in the world, it does not feel like that when you are working there. Alot of management had absolutely no people skills; they just knew how to work alot of hours. I had a supervisor who made inappropriate comments to interns and they did nothing. There were also a contract employee who was sexually harassing women and they did nothing with him. Alot of employees at GE hated life and their jobs.

Pros

It is a large company that can provide a lot of avenues to continue in your career, a large amount of experience handling a larger variety of issues than one would find at another company, and is highly recognized by other institutions. Also, there is a great possibility to move up within the company.

Cons

It is a large company so sometimes communication is lacking on projects or issues.
