"We are different because we are a company you want to work for, that’s got the best, brightest people who are trying hard, who are humble, who are living their dreams and are willing to do it together. That makes us different." - Jeff Immelt, CEO GE

Four things that differentiate us:

Essential Company - We lead business and societal changes – while making money for investors. We have this scale, breadth and expertise to make a difference.

High Performance – Nobody can tell us we can’t grow. We believe size is an advantage and we never stop setting the bar higher.

Great Businesses – We have businesses that are robust, evolve overtime, and are leaders in market share and profitability.

Commitment to our People - We attract the best talent, we invest 1 Billion a year to train them and we spend the time develop people and enable them to build careers.
