Pros
GE looks impressive on your resume to some people. Nice building. They teach you how to give a good pitch!!!
Cons
The whole experience of being a GE employee is a downside. GE is constantly hiring and firing people. They staff up for projects and then when the project is complete lay people off. GE has layoffs down to a science which is something they pride themselves on. Your coworkers are constantly joking nervously about the layoffs. Coworkers are not friends, they are your competitors and they will screw you if they can because it is the difference between staying employed and getting let go. GE expects that you put in a ton of hours all the time, so much for work life balance. Between worrying about getting let go and putting in a ton of hours most GE employees hate the world. Stay away from this place at all costs. Quite frankly your better off unemployed than working here.
