Vantaggi
I've worked for GE for 10 years and I've been very satisified with my job. The salary is very good, the benefits have been great although they have recently changed. It's challenging and you learn a lot about business and industry. It's especially great for college graduates who can get into one of the leadership programs because they get exposure to many different businesses and leadership. I've always been supported in taking time off when necessary for my family. I believe that most management at GE tries to help employees have a good work/life balance.
Svantaggi
It's demanding. GE employees work hard...most more than the standard 40 hour week. There can be a lot of pressure to perform but hard workers are rewarded. It can be hard for newcomers to adapt to some of the processes and terminology used internally. Not a company for thin skinned people who can handle constructive criticism and demanding expectations.
