GE Healthcare Employer Reviews

Overall, great place to work. Long hours, a lot of travel, fair pay

GE is a great company and a great place to work. I have enjoyed my time with GE and the team I worked on.

Matrix structured medical device company. Great leadership and team focused environment.

Busy work schedule. Rarely a dull moment. Co-workers make the company.

A typical day is very diversified. Many projects happening at the same time creating networking opportunities. Hardest part of the job is understanding the internal acronyms and the overall GE Culture. Great place to work and have the opportunity to network and learn.

Interesting industries with important challenges. Good colleagues.

Worked in marketing for GE Plastics for 10 years and GE Healthcare for 10 years.

GE is unlike any other company I've worked for in my carear in healthcare. In the beginning the job was actually very pleasurable and I looked forward to everyday. Customer service was always paramount across the board. Currently things are not as enjoyable as with most economic hard times things change as the business model adjusts to meet the environment. – more... I survived all the attrition at a heavy cost as being the only FE in an area that has been staffed by four FTE's can change your outlook on your job and what you need as an individual. Covering three Western states gives you perspective on your value and career path choices. Over all GE is still an excellant Company, manufacturing very high quality competitive durable medical devices. They will always go the extra mile to make every customer satisfied. Size doesn't matter smallest to the biggest you will get the value GE is known for. The area as described poses some very real challenges especially staffing. It usually becomes to much for most people to handle. Quality of life is somewhere the job has room for improvement. Field Service jobs ingeneral are very demanding on personel requiring extended travel continuos training, many nights away from home and family. If you get satisfaction for working on high tech equipment and don't mind going the extra mile. Benefits have until recently been the best in the industry, currently they are minimal offerings with high deductibles and higher month employe contributions. The Pension plan has been eliminate for new hires. – less

Typical day at work is 80% on making financial targets versus 20% on core competency (IT or insert any other role). Leadership extremely risk averse, running scared on cost, timescales & quality. This is not the place for creativity or innovation unless lucky enough to work in GRC.

Bullying & hostile behavior rewarded with awards and/or promotion. – more... Experienced so much trauma as part of day job, domestic stress no longer registers.

Expect to receive 200+ hostile emails per day about cost, timescales or quality, your immediate manager to be ok but constrained as you are.

Don't expect a huge amount of career progression unless joining GE on graduate program. You may get thrown a bone (training) if you play nice.

Pay is ok for local area. Good point is GE big company & in theory possible to move internally. – less

Great environment to work in with strong team ethic. My team always provided a way for me to exceed at my role and was supportive.

Great place to learn.
Enjoyable part of work is challenges you face on every step.
Awesome in terms of compensation & benefits.

Direct management (supervisors) had a good grasp of what was needed and they tried to give upper management what THEY wanted.

I like to work with flexible hours and places as I would like spend some time with my family. GE is great in that aspect.

Best company, best managment & the employees was like family. Fun environment, the did different things to make sure the employees was stress free...brought in massagers, catered food & planned activites off site. Best place to work!

This position was a joke. Done by Robert Half Technology and Compucom as the staffing agencies. There was no communication that I was going to even be attending a position at the Murray site. And then the un-professionalism of staff that worked for GE.
I did learn a lot on my own because I was told things like " We aren't going to teach you these steps – more... to re-image because I was a sit in for 2 months as a contractor.
Overall Robert Half Tech is okay for staffing but I would not recommend. They lied about the contract in the first place and had an excuse that never really matched up with what the position was for. It payed well for the position but to get paid was a joke also. – less

GE healthcare is a very good employer.
the managrs and co workers are very friendly .
i learned alot at ge healthcare the best part was getting my fork lift licence and they work very well as a team .

Great company to work for. Compensation is the issue. The hardest part of the job would be dealing face to face with an unhappy customer. Its not really hard, but always a challenge to cool them down. On the other hand the most rewarding part of the job would be providing great service and pleasing the customer. It's alwasy nice when you walk away and – more... the customer has a smile on their face. GE provides great training, and now I have knowledge on a variety of different GE imaging systems. – less

Find a mentor and work hard during your first few years. Compensation is not bad, but a large majority of employees (especially the ones who are not self-motivated) are frustrated.

There is always something new to learn which enables you to advance rather quickly.
Co workers never hesitate to lend a helping hand.
The environment is very fast paced but adaptable.
I learned how to be consistent.

GE Healthcare afforded me a lot of opportunities. Worked with multiple teams and had the opportunity to lead and contribute individually.
