GE benefits

The world is catching up to GE's benefits. Healthcare, in particular, has gone from excellent to average in the past few years. New hires after 2012 do not receive a pension and retirees after 12/31/2014 will not receive medical benefits. Work-from-home policy varies greatly between departments and individual managers. Pluses include massive discounts on GE appliances, great rates in home and auto insurance, and GE discounts on everything from mobile phone plans to theme park tickets.

Love the benefits at GE, but I do know that they are different/scaled back for newer hires and retirees. So some employees are grandfathered in with certain benefits that are no longer available or a certain benefit may just not be offered any more to new retirees.

The best is that employees hired before Jan 2011 were able to get a pension plan. Also, you're 100% vested in 401K on day 1 of employment with 4% company match The worst is the health insurance. It is expensive and pays nothing until you hit your $2000 deductible: and that's the best plan.

This is a great place to work. Offer several benefits such us 401, Healthplan, Employee discount, Vacation, Telecommuting, Training, family work balance information, etc.

3 weeks vacation minimum for all employees, plus 1 week personal days, 5 weeks paid sick leave per year. Pensions and 401K

Obviously there are no benefits for interns. However, we did travel to different cities throughout the summer.

i think its very good

Good vacation time, 0-5 years experience gets you 3 weeks vaca, and that bumps to 4 weeks vaca at 5 years of service.

They had great connections to other businesses that gave us so many good employee discounts!
