What is the hiring process like at GE Aerospace?

Best people to work with, everyone cares for each other. Free to share new ideas, healthy problem solving environment with the ability to test new ideas and explore ways to improve. You actually get the recognition after doing something good here. Unlimited vacation time. Amazing health and dental. They also offer bonuses based on annual performance.

No promotions, promotions are not given based off of performance , you have to go through the whole applying and interview process if you want to grow your career.

Being able to join the company with little or no prior experience with jet engines. Decent compensation, company supports and invests in teaming environment.

New hire success currently depends more on 'luck of the draw' regarding team assignment than on a standardized protocol. There is a significant lack of standardization in the onboarding experience, with training quality and team culture varying wildly between the teams. While some teams prioritize mentorship and integration, others adopt a 'prove your worth' mentality that discourages inquiry and utilizes finger pointing over root cause analysis. Furthermore, categorizing training as 'Non Production Time' creates a counterproductive incentive where senior technicians may view essential mentorship and training as a liability to their efficiency metrics as the production rate has increased. Full of 'topped out' technicians with no further motivation and no interest in training, they are happy where they are.

Good wages and benefits and people. Saw many changes over 24+ years I was there. Now happily retired WITH a pension, so, I'm glad for that!

Union contracts affect lower wages now. No pension for new people. Management/leadership roles can be just about anybody and that hurts the company in the long run.

Collaborate cross functionally with a lot of smart people. Work on difficult problems, embrace process improvement. Diversity is celebrated.

Sometimes too much focus on investors, customer first orientation can result in complexity internally.

Very organized onboarding process from my experience, good pay, interesting to work on certain projects.

Slower work at times unfortunately
