Pros

GE can be a good place to work, especially early in one's career, as having GE on your resume adds some credibility. It is a culture that fosters honest feedback, which is hard to come by at some companies.

Cons

You really have to be able to push back on your boss when overloaded here. Many employees have a horrible work/life balance, and get burned out quickly. There is definitely a culture of CYA here, since lots of people get fired, and everyone is always looking for scapegoats.
