Pros

GE is a great company for people who want to challenge themselves and grow professionally. The level of employees there is very high: smart, professional, and hard-working. The company is so large that there are a lot of career opportunities in several different industries.

Cons

GE is known for being very numbers-focused, and it's true. It seems like everything is measured, and without solid financial support, it's hard to get a project approved. This means that they struggle with taking risks.

They also have a forced employee ranking system, where only the top 10 employees can get excellent ratings and nice salary increases. This leaves many great employees discouraged.

Advice to Management

Remove the forced employee ranking system!
