Business outlook
Pros
Experience, Exposure, Resume builder. The brand is powerful for both customers and prospective employees. Individual actions have a greater impact with so much resources behind you. Leadership programs are an excellent means to acquire a good perspective of the company and opportunities within the business. GE spends more on training than another other company i've seen.
Cons
Patience required, as the opportunity ladder takes a while to climb. Insiders are promoted first, so don't expect to come in quickly and change things. Locations are not glamorous and usually in a low cost manufacturing area. If you have a family that is bearable and affordable. If your looking for a fun single scene then look elsewhere.
