Pros

GE Energy Services has great benefits when it comes to medical and dental. GE also has a decent vacation schedule. Management is very good at recognizing talent and they are proactive in assisting those inclined with initiative to move up the ladder. GE is a fortune 500 company with world wide name recognition. GE also is very pro-military which is a huge plus to our Nations Veterans.

Cons

Pay at General Electric is subpar compared to others in the surrounding region. We've lost alot of personnel over lack of pay. GE also does not give out any type of bonus compensation. This is another reason we've experienced such a large turnover in the last 12 months. Most other power plants have a bonus program as well as pay more. Another problem GE faces is they have gotten so big and have become so diverse they have actually over-complicated the most simplest of tasks. Too uch micro-managing. This tends to leave one wondering at the end of the day just what exactly did get accomplished.

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.
