Pros

Exciting industry, good opportunities all over the country. Having the GE resume will look good on your resume later on. If you complete a leadership program, your opportunities for advancement are excellent within the company.

Cons

long hours, getting stuck doing the "dirty" work. don't always get to see end result of your work. GE has a very strong corporate culture. It's easy to get lost and mixed up in the corporate/cubicle culture. Sometimes, work seems meaningless and non-value adding. If you are working in business, GE does not encourage you to go back and get your MBA.

Pros

One of the best reasons to work for Energy would have to be the opportunity to move within the company, given good performance reviews and fulfillment of certain time restrictions.

Cons

After a while, your role seems to morph into what could be two full time jobs, 40 hour weeks dont seem to give you enough time to resolve complex issues, especially when you are on conference calls for 4 hours a day...

Pros

Large organization has the resources to provide a good learning environment. If you have a question, you can usually find someone who is an expert in the area (the hard part is finding them). If you can get on the right track (e.g. start in one of their leadership development programs) then there is a lot of upward potential.

Cons

If you work in finance, expect to work on the weekends at quarter close. Expect to do more accounting than actual finance. Annual planning never stops (it just changes from SI to SII to Op Plan to whatever the new buzzword is) and there is less value in it because you do it so frequently. Financial systems are complex and may not be designed to support your business.
