Pros

Brand name.

On-campus facilities are some of the best in class.

Very women-friendly atmosphere. Though this doesn't apply to me.

Cons

Rigid top management.

Number of years of service matter more than skills or efforts.

Rewards and recognition are almost non-existent.

If you are a woman, you have an easy life. If you are a man, God help you.

On-site opportunities are non-existent.

Very, very, very attrition-averse.

Compensation, leave, and benefit policies vary within businesses, e.g., GE-Transportation, GE-Power and Water, GE-Aviation.

You must spend at least a few years for others to get to know you. Until then, you are nobody.

Advice to Management

Nurture young talent, please! Some of the best minds work for GE. Tap their potential. Recognize and reward talent as and when appropriate.
