Great Pay, Great Company, but Tough & Competitive Atmosphere
Great Pay, Great Company, but Tough & Competitive Atmosphere
Co-ops are responsible for important projects and are relied upon by the technology team. Most entry-level co-ops are considered new full-time engineers and are given responsibilities based on that status. HR managers are flexible with unpaid time off/vacation.
Managers are very demanding. There is a somewhat of a lack of communication between the marketing and engineering teams. Also, a loss of feedback from upper-level managers is somewhat consistent. Workload and expectations can be very stressful at times.
Management needs to communicate more with the technology team about specific projects and why these are valuable to the industry.

General Electric Interview Experiences
Mechanical Engineer
First year I had a phone interview, which I passed, but then was informed the job didn't exist. This year, I passed a video interview and am waiting for a face-to-face interview (which will probably never happen).

In-person interview after phone screening. Packet of questions given at the interview. Laid-back, simple questions with a panel of four people. Also given a tour of the facility. One to two weeks after the interview, received their decision.
