Pros

- A lot of driven colleagues. So I enjoyed the interaction - brand recognition across industries that GE plays in - Good reputation

Cons

- Over hyped middle management and very slow, risk averse decision making - Very political in middle management and sr management - good old girls (yes they exist) and good old boys (not so many anymore) club. People are promoted based on first impressions and gossips rather than objective results
