Pros

The company has great compensation. Working for GE is currently looked at as being a positive when trying to find a new job.

Cons

Instead of trying to grow most of the aquasitions, GE consistantly focuses on making profit by cutting the bottom line. They constantly look for cheaper ways to build product. While this basic idea is not a bad thing, their presure to do this is extreme. After some time, the quality goes. Their employees are only numbers to them. Their basic policy is to force out 10% every year. They do this by forcing managers to put 10% of their people into a catagory indicating they are sub-par. This should be based on the managers opinion, not some moron in Bradenton!!!

Pros

It's a good foot-in-the-door to work within the larger structure of GE

Cons

This division of GE doesnt have a good handle on its business. It's a cluster of small businesses that someone higher-up said, "lets group them all together and see what happends." What ended up happening is the business imploded.
