Business outlook
Pros
GE Healthcare has HUGE resources, which enabled it to survive the current recession. The company actively promotes very strong business ethics - employees are constantly told to do the right thing for the long term, following the spirit as well as the letter of the law. A lot of effort is put into process improvement.
Cons
Despite preaching "doing the right thing", non-management (and low-management level) employees are treated as easily-interchangeable parts in a larger machine. The company is struggling to figure out how to be good at software development - and perhaps to be as good at management as it once was.
