Pros

Pension plan, international company, broad scope of operations, good place to build skills to take elsewhere, salary in line with expectations

Cons

In Healthcare IT there is very much a high school locker room mentality. Promotion is all about who you know and who your friends are. Politics abound. On one hand you're told that GE wants people who speak out and innovate, but that's not what is really valued. Rock the boat at your own expense. There is little to no teamwork and customer service is a joke. The staff actively seeks to run away from problems rather than run towards problems. Any kind of process improvement is immediately watered down or shoved under the rug by management. Human Resources supports the management structure regardless of how poorly the staff is treated or how low the retention rate is. I am very disillusioned, I thought GE was a great place to go to work and have found out that it is not.

Pros

-a lot of smart and talented people work here -reasonable pay and benefits -nice coworkers -some remote work opportunities, albeit decreasing over time

Cons

-mixed leadership - some good leaders, some terrible ones -ridiculously onerous processes - their QMS system is ludicrously conservative and involves literally hundreds of documents to make one product -sourcing takes 10x longer than it should -tolerance of poor performers and way too high a bar to get rid of them -bad annual raises - often lower than inflation these past few years - and weakly based on personal performance
