      OK place to work. Be prepared to work many hours without much recognition or compensation.

      Pros

      Many talented Employees who are very intelligent and highly motivated. Now that the business is being spun off ther ability to move between businesses will not be there.

      Cons

      Not enough visibility for your accomplishments. Positions are not being filled in Plainville as they are vacated. Compensation was not high as other businesses.

      Pros

      Great growth opportunities in expanding business segments when coming off internal leadership programs Interesting products and technology- engineers will have a field day Great perks for top performing teams and senior management Competitive salary and bonuses Always attempt to retain top level talent Good launch pad to another company when working for a limited period of time

      Cons

      Corporate politics tough for employees not properly trained; must be aggressive to seek promotions Always driving to metrics affecting the bottom line without properly identifying root cause of problems Stretch employee headcounts thin to cut costs Many employees really are simple numbers to senior management Leadership programs essentially function as internal MBA for GE; however are not viewed in same light elsewhere

      Pros

      GE gives you the opportunity to fulfill all your career goals and recognises and rewards hard work. There is a wealth of on-line resources to help you do your job but not alot of on the job training. The organisation is constantly changing and you have to be flexible - this is something I enjoy as there are always challenges.

      Cons

      There is no work/life balance this is a message that is fed from the top. Deadlines are extremely tight and have to be met often resulting in 50 plus hour weeks and weekend work. The organisation is very short termist and it is often hard to see the longer term strategy. Compensation packages tend to be at market rate on entry but fail to keep pace with competitors after a couple of years in the job.
