Pros

Opportunities - geographically, industry, etc

Cons

Options limited if you don't start right out of college and are part of the development program. Hierarchy structure is the worst I've seen. All creates a "look at me" culture.

Business Outlook

Pros

Generally good work conditions and pay but they will wring it out of you

Cons

Spineless leadership, solely focused on profits and cash flow Strings attached to every benefit/ reward Fake advocacy for the trend of the week ... we're pro veteran, we're pro LBGTQ, etc (back to the spineless leadership ... no one stands for anything EXCEPT GE) Cult like atmosphere at times ... "what have you done for mother GE today"
