General Electric

Pretty relaxed atmosphere. Unlimited sick time and nice cubicles. Pride in working for a major multinational corporation with a great reputation. Fairly relaxed atmosphere and no dress code. Business class air travel when on overseas business. Free cookies and treats at various places throughout the building. Free parking.

Operation is falling apart, the result of a lack of product development and declining sales. There are limited training opportunities. Management won't match oil and gas salaries, and professionals are leaving for oil and gas firms. Old technology and no clear plan to update the product line. No 'excitement' of working for a growing company, and hence, limited opportunities for advancement.

Spend the money to develop a product that customers want. Outsourcing is causing major quality problems.
