      GE Should Not Have to Be a Stepping Stone to another Job!

      Pros

      Benefits are good. Fellow Employees are great. Having GE on the resume is always a plus. GE uses quality equipment and is very safety conscious.

      Cons

      GE has elevated bureaucracy to an art form!. Compensation: there is a cookie cutter approach to compensation (Pay for Performance doesn't work for every job) Employee Review System: too regimented with no real objective standards for measurement, forcing employees to use "GE Speak" - get rid of it.

      Pros

      Benefits / Resume Builder / People / Hours / Relocation possibilities throughout the country/world. The company is well respected and has a large network of EX GE employees with whom to network. Tuition reimbursment is also a great benefit.

      Cons

      Beauracracy / Mundane tasks / Non stop data asks / Advancement can be structured so as to not work in your benefit. If you do twice as much as someone else they can get promoted faster if they have been there longer. There can also be a lot of mundane data grabs or other task that get fed down the pipe.

      Pros

      Great benefits and leadership training. They have great leadership programs that give you a jump start. If you are considered at the top, then you are weened to grow.

      Cons

      Overworked and sometimes leadership is based on who you know and not what you know. If you are not seen as top talent within the company, then you will not move up. People will only promote growing you and your career if you are deemed the best which does not necessarily mean its based upon performance but rather who you have networked with.
