Pros

Interesting technology. Always something to learn

Cons

I am surprised so many people on this site are satisfied with GE. The employee experience for myself and virtually every other colleague I speak with is one of disappointment. This is reinforced by a high turnover of personel. The reputation for training GE has does not take place in my business unit, the quality at times is embarrasing. The disconnect between employees and leaders is vast. There is no support, teamwork, or cooperation. It is standard for emails not to be responded to. When we are the face of GE to the Customer we need support at times, it is not there. The was actually an article on the GE intranet last week called "Culture Shock" where it talked about the "exodus"of people. This too was reinforced by the internal GEOS (GE Opinion Survey) which confirms my comments. The culture in my business unit is subpar, period. I am looking internally to get out of the unit I am in, otherwise life is too short to work here.

Pros

Pay was appropriate for the position. Management was active.

Cons

They expect employees to give free overtime. Salary is expected to work overtime without reason. Hourly are expected to work overtime without pay, even if there is a reason. Management will protect themselves first. No one is truly good at their job because employees are constantly being moved.
