Pros
If a military style environment is your thing, this place is for you! You wear uniforms at the Fort Worth location so you save on buying clothes. GE Transportation is very hierarchical.
Cons
50 hour work weeks are a requirement as a salaried employee. "If you can get your work done in less than 50 hours, then you don't have enough work to do" is what I've heard management say. Bonuses are given to management only which makes employees in lower bands to feel overworked and unappreciated. Diversity is nonexistent at Fort Worth as most of the workforce are white or hispanic males. Because of this, HR has a hard time maintaining the little diversity it does manage to get in the door, especially women. A mostly male management make it difficult for women to have a flexible work schedule. More than anything, the employees are very competitive with one another and refuse to share knowledge during the onboarding process (which consists of shadowing on the salary side). Because of the lack of diversity, refusal to share knowledge within teams and the 50 hour work weeks, innovation ceases to exist within this organization. Management is a HUGE PROBLEM here. I can't imagine what the organization will look like with the huge waves of layoffs happening in Erie. Don't waste your time here.
