Pros

GE only has the best people working. Being with the best means being around people who have the same drive and motivation to succeed. Volunteerism is everywhere and makes work more enjoyable and rewarding to be with GE.

Cons

Not enough full time w/benefits positions for everyone, not enough little perks.

Pros

Unlimited possibilities, there is tremendous support for people to go beyond their traditional boundaries and explore. GE continually changes itself which opens up opportunity for everyone who wants it.

Cons

Employees that produce less than stellar results are slow to be managed out of the company - especially at the lower (non exec) levels. This can lead to frustration in the folks that take the job seriously and can end up in the good people leaving and the weak staying.

Pros

GE produces leaders. The best thing you can ever get out of GE is the training they offer. GE is dedicated to making the best leaders possible. I would strongly recommend their leadership programs from FMP, OMLP to IMLP. All great starting places for recent college grads.

Cons

People are addicted to their work. Everyone is very hard working but unfortunately, not the place for people who enjoy work/life balance.
