Take the opportunity to learn as much as you can when you work for GE, but leave for a career
Take the opportunity to learn as much as you can when you work for GE, but leave for a career
Some opportunities to work on cutting-edge technologies and learn from world-class professionals.
-
Low respect from management to their people.
-
Lots of bureaucracy, politics, and nonsense.
-
Terrible performance evaluation system.
-
It's a relationship-to-your-manager evaluation system, not a technical performance evaluation system.
-
Engineers and researchers have to fight each other for work.
-
Research lab managers are not doing their jobs to find work/projects for their people but whipping them to find work themselves.
-
If people cannot find enough work to cover their time, they get a low evaluation and are suggested to leave.
Middle-level managers, lab managers, should pay more attention to your researchers and engineers, not just your boss. Treat the people who do the hard work for you like humans, not slave laborers.

Good, but long. Flew in for a few interviews, did most of the others remotely or over the phone. Nice staff, fairly transparent on what benefits are. Would recommend; good area.

What brings you to our company? Tell me about yourself. The first round is the screening round. I did not get to the second round, so I cannot provide further details.

Video one-way interview with timed response and multiple takes. There is also time to think of an answer. To get to this stage, you first need to pass a test.
