Worst company in the world to work for!

Pros

Pay was good but money isn't everything! Enjoyed the work but not the company I worked for! I would not recommend going to work for this company to anyone!

Cons

Worst run company I have ever seen. Very unethical from the top down. Cut throat management, they treat you like crap and believe me, you are only a clock number to them! If this company did not have such deep pockets and money to just throw away, they would have been out of business a long time ago! The best decision I ever made was to walk away for less money and get away from the toxic environment of GE!

Pros

A culture that enables you to be what you want to be and go as far as your skills/ambition can take you. GE has given me diverse experiences across the globe, in multiple businesses and industries. In the end I was part of the Capital team which led to my departure and whilst I was ready for a new challenge, I'm very grateful for the platform GE gave me.

Cons

At a point, there are only so many places available above you in to which a promotion is possible - in the Finance world, CAS graduates often take priority and so opportunity can become limited. Sometimes too many chiefs, and despite the desired culture shift, many hoops (and associated work) to go through to get things done.

Pros

Good pay and opportunities at Crotonville.

Cons

You are micro managed and there is no real sense of empowerment! Within their Corporate IT Shared Services Unit it is an absolute mess! They can not figure things out and stay straight on a strategic mission for more than 6 months. A behemoth like GE can not turn on a dime. GE moving to the cloud and their Predix Platform is a big joke and they are wasting tons of money on it!
