Business Outlook

Pros

GE has excellent training programs, and integrity is an important part of the culture. The people are fantastically smart! Lots of opportunity to move through different roles and businesses if you are willing to relocate.

Cons

A company of this immense size has a hard time getting out of its own way. The focus on process (6 Sigma) is often misapplied to services portions of the business. Engineers are revered - others, not so much. HR functions as kingmakers and are to be feared.

Business Outlook

Pros

-Great co-workers. -Decent compensation. -Great history. The company is well respected throughout the world. -The company operates with the highest level of integrity.

Cons

-The leadership team will not make investments necessary to grow the business. It is strictly a cost-out culture. We live from quarter-to-quarter and no one is brave enough to make a major long-term investment. -Jeff Immelt, the CEO, is a poor leader who has driven our stock price into the toilet. -I am not sure where I go next in regard to my career path.
