Pros

experience, some visibility, learning the job. Teaches you why one shouldn't work for a big company if one's smart

Cons

They work you like a dog and pay you like crap. Even the stock is crappy now. Plus, the culture is dog eat dog. I have seen so much incompetent people being promoted it's really sad. GE needs real leaders in these times and the existing managers are just scums. Only at executive level you may see some bright people, otherwise it's carnivourous animals eating each other.

Pros

My first job after college and my internship was a great experience. I learned a lot about medical devices and the medical device industry, and I even got promoted to site leader pretty quickly.

Cons

My training was nonexistent; I learned everything from medical device service manuals. In my region, a billion-dollar company offered no bonuses or decent pay, and the management was micromanaging and horrible.
