Pros

-Great facility. The EPISCenter in downtown Dayton, is a new, top of the line power electronics test lab and IPT office area for NPI's. - Work vs life balance. Flexible paid time off and effective ways to work remotely when life happens. GE provides good options to be effective and recharge your batteries. - Senior Management. Previous mgt made last 2 years painful. At long last, looks like they got the right people for the job. I think current senior management is headed in the right direction.

Cons

- Poor project leadership. Communication and trust are bad, teams often kept in dark on serious technical issues and schedule delays. - Pay: its maybe 10-20% lower than similar jobs at other organizations. - Tough to get raises. Doing a good job gets recognized and results in increased responsibility. Thats good. But not in increased pay. Thats bad. I know a few folks whos management gave them more and more responsibility because they worked their tail off. Mgt strung them along with fuzzy promises for raises but never made good. They left.
