Pros

1) the best thing about this company is perfect work-life balance 2) all the policies are in best interest of employee 3) Best holiday policies... if you apply in advance no one will reject your application regardless project urgency. 4) Nice work culture ..depends if you don't get into politics.. which you will find every where.. but in this company you will find less 5) Floor manager is very co-operative and so are the HR managers 6) Best work timings.. flexible timings .. 7) Good canteen and good food 8) Many other small facilities which are not suitable to type here.. but trust me management takes care of there employee and their basic needs 9) With proper reasoning they will understand your problems and give you lots of flexibility I would strongly recommend any one who would like to finally settle down for a long run .. this is the company

Cons

1) Growth is limitied 2) Monotonous job 3) Need to know basis work culture 4) Salary hike is same as per market standards ... regardless you outperform

Pros

In this full employment environment - I can't think of any at GEA - so unless you are desperate - stay away from GEA - especially if you are considering a career.

Cons

Demand to see a copy of the Hive Off manual sent to firing managers - It states that 'age' can be used in determining who to lay off
