Vantaggi
The obvious reasons to work at GE are its excellent history and reputation, wide breadth of industries, excellent training and many, many opportunities. There are endless types of jobs, locations and industries within GE. Less obvious reasons to work at GE are the excellent people. Not only is the GE leadership top notch, but the competency of the average employee is extremely high. Most people want to get the job done. People are very smart and very passionate about their jobs. The size and influence of GE is impressive. Whenever you encounter a problem in your job, you can tap the entire company's resources to help. Lastly, the global nature of many of GE's businesses make it an exciting place to work. I have friends and collegues all over the world and have had many opportunites to travel around the world.
Svantaggi
Work/life balance is not always the best at GE. Additionally, GE's strict penny pinching can get tiresome.
