      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's a good foot-in-the-door to work within the larger structure of GE

      Cons

      This division of GE doesnt have a good handle on its business. It's a cluster of small businesses that someone higher-up said, "lets group them all together and see what happends." What ended up happening is the business imploded.

      Research job in India

      Engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good top management - the quality of leadership is excellent. The training received by top management at global training centres ensures consistently good people guiding the company. The research & development centre in India is one of a kind since such centres are quite few and far between in India as compared to the rest of the world. So for someone who is not too keen on cutting edge research and is looking for a fairly challenging job without core software development, it is a good fit. The work life balance, team spirit & benefits (not compensation which is very poor) are great!

      Cons

      The centre especially focusing on research is touted as being on par with the centres in rest of the world - US for example. But this is far from true since most of the cutting edge work is executed in the US and only small bite sized work chunks manage to reach India. The quality of people is not as good either - there is a heavy compromise, due to abundant availability of Masters candidates - while PhD is a must in the US thereby ensuring greater quality of research output. Also, restrictions on offshoring work from US due to defence/security concerns prevent great work coming this way! The biggest downside is the terrible pay, where quite well qualified candidates are paid even lesser than freshly graduated software engineers elsewhere!
