Pros

GE is good for early career growth. Good entry-level salaries in engineering. Comfortable work environment. Exposure to many opportunities in and out of Energy Management. Some good training opportunities, (Six Sigma, CAP, etc.)

Cons

Long work hours are the rule, and I personally have had some managers who frowned upon anyone seeking "work/life" balance. GE is terrible for midlevel career growth. Average to below average salaries in engineering. There is a definite lack of career path for anyone wishing to stay on the technical-side of the business. Too much re-organizational churn, (in one year I reported to 4 different people.) EM business overall is not strong and layoffs are likely. Many people promoted to management levels do not have the necessary skills to manage people. Specific to Energy Management, the product managers seem to lack vision for the future, and follow the current trend. Given their long release cycles this puts their products at a distinct disadvantage. Pricing and product delivery strategy are also well behind the times.

Pros

Exposure to functions and senior leadership within GEV. PMLPs have the ability to take on as much responsibility as they can handle *IF they push for it.

Cons

Unstructured. PMLPs are free labor and often times pull in directions that may not be the best for their future but for the success of the company.
