Pros

At GE you learn to lead. Those who think they know already what it means to lead, get forced to learn how they should really do it ; and those that don't know the leader in them get a chance to awaken their leadership side. It is all about the way GE manages you with it's overall development agenda, on the job and through training. Amazing opportunity at any career stage.

Cons

You need to take control of your destiny in this company ; come to work willing to change and improve - and do it. If you don't drive performance, and show you do so, or if you depend on instructions from your boss, you're in for trouble or on your way out.

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.
