Pros

A company for women. Flexible on working hours. Lots of opportunities in different countries. Stable environment, not stressful. Compensation and benefits are average. Atmosphere is relaxed. Innovation is not promoted, but it is supported if you are willing to do better, there is plenty of space to be creative and to perform.

Cons

A lot of slackers in the organization, no common targets, customer is the last, ineffective management. People with real potential will not get higher, management is awarding seniority over performance. A lot of leaders have seen just Ge in their working life, resulting in an environment poor of ideas. There is never a responsible if things are going wrong. Leaders are working less than teammates, using home office for unofficial holidays

Pros

Benefits excellent. Time off policy very good. Able to research and apply for positions throughout the company in all divisions and subsidiaries. Leadership training very good. GE employees are looked at by other companies and recruiters.

Cons

Very high expectations so be ready to put in some long days. In some areas there is management overkill. Too much training overlap in some GE business.
