Pros
Diverse company, lots of businesses within to interact with. Having "GE" on the resume looks good to outside parties or in conversation.
Cons
Changed to a horrible healthcase plan the year after no raises were given. Almost all internal postings at the midrange to higher levels prefer some GE program, this limits opportunities to those who just came to the company for a standard job. Corporate politics. Promotions seem to be given to people that do more talking than working. Most management heads admit they leave hard working employees in the same position, rather than promote. Annual evaluation process is long and repetitive, once it is done there is no further feedback given to employees on how all the information is used or processed
