Pros

Hard work on some of the most challenging problems in the world.

Cons

GE keeps selling businesses and there is no end in sight. Travel was suspended for the year. No conferences and education money is gone. They have made an effort to say they want more women in leadership men do not apply. Some of the recent choices are mind boggling like putting an Iranian woman in charge of IT security.

Pros

Flexible work arrangements. Exciting and complex sales opportunities create a rewarding work environment.

Cons

Stressful work environment. Low work - life balance. Every year seems to be a stretch year, with little to no rewards for what should be considered a fantastic year.

Pros

GE is focused on employee growth at its core, make sure every employee gains constant feedback, works towards tangible goals and has a path to get there.

Cons

GE is large, so the layering and bureaucracy that come with that can be difficult. There are also numerous leadership programs within the company that dictate employees' trajectories where - had you not completed one of these programs- you're less likely gain executive status.
