      Lots of great people, almost too many

      Pros

      Working with great people in a very important field for the world right now. Exciting assignments and have a lot of options for growth.

      Cons

      It's huge. There are tons of people and a lot of learning how to do your job is learning who to know. People also move around so often that it can be difficult to keep up.

      Patience yields big opportunities

      Pros

      Experience, Exposure, Resume builder. The brand is powerful for both customers and prospective employees. Individual actions have a greater impact with so much resources behind you. Leadership programs are an excellent means to acquire a good perspective of the company and opportunities within the business. GE spends more on training than another other company i've seen.

      Cons

      Patience required, as the opportunity ladder takes a while to climb. Insiders are promoted first, so don't expect to come in quickly and change things. Locations are not glamorous and usually in a low cost manufacturing area. If you have a family that is bearable and affordable. If your looking for a fun single scene then look elsewhere.

      Good place to start out, but gets old very quick.

      Pros

      Large company, lots of different groups to work with, used to be a solid stock to own too. Benefits are pretty reasonable.

      Cons

      Very large company, feels very small. Not that easy to move around the company. Not a lot of sharing within the company. I spend a lot of time doing nothing while I was there, and a lot of my projects ended up getting cancelled after I put a lot of time into them. Pay raises are not great even if you work very hard.
