Pros

Good for experience in the large corporation realm. GE tends to like mobility, so it's perfect if you only want to gain experience in various products. You also will have opportunities to recommend many improvements. GE has the money to spend to try new equipment and processes.

Cons

GE has cut many of the former benefits. Newcomers will have fewer and fewer benefits, from pensions to healthcare in retirement to vacation time. Their IT department is poor, so you can expect to be using old and clunky software, generally not the latest/greatest.

Advice to Management

Value those who stay to learn expertise, not just those who move around. We need medical for retirees.
