Pros

Talented co-workers and interesting products. GE Healthcare hires the best engineers and provides top-notch equipment. The products are high-tech medical imaging equipment. It is very satisfying to describe to friends and neighbors how you are working on state-of-the-art medical equipment.

Cons

Management is paralized with indecisiveness. Mid-level managers are afraid to say no or push back. Although the healthcare products are high-tech, there is extreme aversion to adopting new technologies. Most enigneers have to work with off-the-shelf existing technologies. Limited advancement opportunities on the so-called technical career path. If you want to make $$$, you must become a manager.

Pros

- You get to travel if you want to - Stable company with big portofolio. Will still be around tomorrow - Performance is rewarded (at least in theory)

Cons

- Constant competition rather than cooperation with other teams within the company - GE keeps on buying additional companies because it fails to grow 'organically' and looks no further than the next quarterly figures. - Burocracy: a lot of time and effort lost on useless trainings and procedures - Little innovation. Focus on maintenance existing products, rather than the next generation - Internal e-mails and self-promotional meterial is always full of slogans promoting the 'GE' values and virtues. But they are entirely empty: they promote the same values at their military production sites as in the Healthcare business.

Pros

There is a perception that GE is the place to work as they have good quality products…So the only good reason is to have the GE name on your resume as others on the outside think GE develops great talent.

Cons

Everything at GE Healthcare is an emergency and has to be done NOW!! So in turn what this means is there is NO work life balance, NO proactive planning, NO chance at doing your job as you will spend more time doing power point presentations on your lack of progress because you are spending all your time power pointing rather than doing your job.
