Pros

Money is okay. The work environment has gotten much better over the years in some departments, but others have not improved at all. There are some very talented technical people here, but they spend too much of their time on GE-imposed bureaucracy.

Cons

You never know when the winds of layoff will blow your way. GE, as a corporation, is fickle and will remove large chunks of a business overseas at enormous cost. I guess the tax savings are worth it. GE is declining in the healthcare industry and will probably be out of any US-based manufacturing in less than 10 years.
