GE – “Satisfied with my experience”

Pros

Large people network spreading across various industries. Clout when dealing with suppliers. Many opportunities for career development and encouraged to broaden skill set.

Cons

It is hard to gain visibility with so many employees. Depending on the industry you are in, career development is limited without relocation.

Advice to Senior Management

Review the compensation timeline and ensure the top performers are getting compensated in a timely manner. If you are a top performer and not getting raise until 12-15 mos timeframe, that is not comparable with compensation practices at other companies.
