GE Rail Services Reviews

Pros

Working for GE allows to a lot of opportunities to move around, especially for interns. There are a number of programs available that allow for quick advancement and rotational positions. GE is a big company, but my location was pretty felt small and sedated. Being a intern I don't really know what kind of benefits full time employees get, but I get the impression that GE benefits are pretty decent. I liked my coworkers.

Cons

Unfortunately, as an intern I didn't get much interesting work to do. I didn't get much real useful experience. Employee services like Payroll and IT are centralized and/or outsourced, and are thus a nightmare to work with. It took a week or two just to get setup to use a computer, and a few more just to get a paycheck.

Advice to Senior Management

I didn't really have interactions with senior management.

Pros

Great Pay and benefits, work - life balance ,

Cons

Very unproductive environment, needs to go through a real " lean " program, internally focused , not on the customer. Top down management is obsolete. Too many VP's, need to simplify and reduce needless meetings, reports and presentations.

Advice to Senior Management

Being one of the most respected companies, it was disappointing to be part of GE Rail. There are alot of brilliant, talented people working there, but they need to be unleashed and manage, not report all the time.
