General Electric

GE is a great place to start your career and grow.

It gives you a sense of the physics and what is involved in solving a real-world problem.

You will see very important and challenging problems within a year of working at GE.

They expect a lot from you, and you better provide it.

The salary is rather poor compared to companies which focus on oil and military. A raise is annual, if that. Stupid people prevent the smart people from completing their jobs. This means business/finance people should not be telling the engineers to "throw some temperatures on the metal and get it out the door."

Do not interfere with the engineer's decision. GE is mostly supported by technical products, so let the technical people make the calls.
