The Perks: how working for GE just might get you some unexpected savings
Did you know that GE employees get discounts at many hotels, stores, and other establishments? Well, it’s the truth. It seems that it pays to work for a company as respected as GE, whether it’s while you’re out traveling or just out at the mall. Personally, I’ve saved hundreds. From cell phone bills to business attire purchases, new computers to jewelry, these perks of the job can really pay off.
Not only this, but GE offers even larger discounts on GE-made items via a GE online marketplace. Here you can purchase any of the hundreds of GE products out there ranging from movies and home appliances to HD TVs and digital cameras, all at a fraction of the regular retail prices.
And what’s more, most of these savings aren’t just open to GE employees, but also their friends and family. I’ve helped my wife’s family outfit their new kitchen with a set of GE appliances and got them a large discount in the process, just by working for GE. My sister needed a dishwasher for her place, so I was able to let her make use of the GE discount there too. So it seems that these GE perks can do more than just put some extra cash back in your pocket by working for your friends and family to do the same for them!
GE continues to partner with more and more businesses to bring extra savings to GE employees around the globe. So, if you’re looking at GE as a perspective employer, don’t forget to ask what other perks come with the job. Whether it’s the benefits, 401k, or the discounts listed above, few businesses do perks better than GE.

Hi Rich. Sure, I can help you out. The site is simply https://www.ge.com/marketplace/
You should have a login provided in an email from your GE friend or family member. If you've lost or forgotten this, just have your GE friend or family member go to the site's employee side (accessible from the same URL) and re-invite you into the Friends and Family side of the site.
Hope this helps!
