Pros

Brand name. On campus facilities are some of the best in class Very women friendly atmosphere. Though this doesn't apply to me.

Cons

Rigid top management Number of years of service matter more than skills or efforts Rewards and recognition is almost non existent If you are a woman, you have an easy life. If you are a man, god help you. On site opportunities are non existent Very very very attrition averse. Compensation, leave, benefits policy vary within businesses. Ex GE-Transportation, GE-Power and Water, GE-Aviation You must spend at least a few years for others to get to know you. Until then, you are nobody
