Pros

GE, is name older than 150 years. Its pride to work for. You are a part of the things which change the world. The HR policies are the best. And their salary is one of the best.

Cons

When I joined a separate software wing was being formed, so it was in transition and things were not smooth. The quality of software development was not that great. But that was back then, it definitely would have improved.

Pros

GE has been smart enough to stay around for a long time because management is pragmatic and tries to stay grounded in real numbers and safe bets.

Cons

Risk taking is not always rewarded, even when successful. GE tends to take safe bet and looks for innovative ideas that they can buy through aquisitions rather than branching out and trying new things themselves.

Pros

- Work with a lot of good, friendly people who are very helpful. - Flexible working hours

Cons

- Long hours where no matter what you put in isn't enough. - Tight schedules, always "under the gun" to get things done. - No compensation or incentive programs. - Outdated and dirty facilities, trash all over the place. - Understaffed and don't have the proper tools to do my job.
