Plenty of opportunity. Good project selection. Lots of freedom to explore and present ideas for growth. The management team is awesome and the company has plenty of room for advancement.

I don't k ow if it's necessarily a bad thong, but GE really pressures its employees to stick around. Once they invest in you they want you to be there to invest your knowledge in the company.
