Pros

Good to start your career and move on. You career opportunities are based in who you know and not in your performance.

Cons

Structure is not there, they take to long to decide anything, and there is no clear message on where the company is going, and at first sign of trouble they take on head count.

Pros

GE is a great place to start your career and grow. It gives you a sense of the physics and what is involved in solving a real world problem. You will see very important and challenging problems within a year of working at GE. They suspect a lot from you and you better provide them with it.

Cons

The salary is rather poor compared to companies which focus on oil and military. A raise is annually if that. Stupid people prevent the smart people from completing their jobs. Meaning a business/finance people should not be telling the engineers to throw some temperatures on the metal and get it out the door.
