Pros

Great company to learn and grow your career.

GE is a Fortune 6 company and builds infrastructures of the world.

You will be working on really interesting problems in the industrial space.

You will meet the best and the brightest.

You will be given the support you will need to succeed.

Cons

Has over 300,000 employees, and it feels like it. There is a large amount of bureaucracy. Almost 50% of your work time is spent working through GE processes.

Advice to Management

Work more like a startup. Take chances. Thin out rigor and internal processes, which are "thick and heavy."
