      THE WORST JOB OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nothing, the company is so big and bureaucratic that you're just a number. They talk about simplifying work but all they do is pass it along to others

      Cons

      Too many to list. My suggestion is not apply to this company. They don't care about you they just care about the bottom line after the senior executive team writes a check with their mouth to the board that their ass can't cash

      Very Social Culture, Poorly Organized

      Sourcing leader
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Smart people, full of overachievers - can be cut-throat.Doing a good job is not enough. Someone else will take credit if you dont. Culture is always changing. Trying to streamline. Lots of growth opportunities, you are expected to move up every two years. Great opps for women and minorities. Lots of public services also. People are very responsive and expect you to be as well. Pay is low for country but high for the depressed area. People are very friendly, almost family like, once you are in and they know you're name.

      Cons

      Work with union can be frustrating. Expect long hours and little to no appreciation. Lots of bureaucracy. IT is very behind and networks are slow and it takes forever to do simple tasks. Too many meaningless Reorgs with too many levels of high paid managers and no one to do the actual work. Busy work can be redundant and a bit ridiculous at times.

      GE is not what it used to be!

      Pros

      GE still has a good name, but read on !

      Cons

      GE's name has been synonymous with allowing imagination, creativity and fundamental work flourish to generate new directions in research resulting in new concepts, products, etc: this is not true anymore! The health insurance, vacations and other benefits are not really on-par with the reputation of the company.
