Pros

Opportunties to contribute and learn are deep and numerous. Technology which to me, is the foundation of GE, is still the core of the business.

Cons

It is not just GE Energy that has the issue. The focus at GE is always about money and not enough about people and process. It is the wrong focus. The money will follow if we spend the time to fix the processes and value the people. GE Energy is one of the most profitable businesses in the company right now which while we should feel good about our success, we are pressured EVERYDAY to carry the burden of "protecting the company". The heart of the business is execution to our customers and those managing pricing and finance are considered the "unsung heroes" while people in the field and those who support them are being hounded about cost cuts, travel restrictions, cost of quality reductions, etc. etc.

Pros

My first job after college and my internship was a great experience. I learned a lot about medical devices and the medical device industry, and I even got promoted to site leader pretty quickly.

Cons

My training was nonexistent; I learned everything from medical device service manuals. In my region, a billion-dollar company offered no bonuses or decent pay, and the management was micromanaging and horrible.
