thanks for you quick answer
are you talking about the european fmp or the US one?
do the hours you claim include training classes? if so, it's pretty fair. i though the fmp was more time demanding
what a FMP can typically expect after 5y in GE? (without joining the CAS)
as a FMP in europe, where do you pay tax?? in the country where you rotate?
thanks again for your time GEFMP! |

I'm talking about the European. Rumor has it FMPs tend to work slightly harder in the US, but I don't know.
Again, on average the workload is more than reasonable, but there are some extremely tough rotations. The hours I mentioned include classes but of course not the time needed to study! Classes are very disappointing: it's just GE brainwashing, they don't really explain you the stuff they'll ask at the exams, so you gotta study all that on your own.
You pay taxes to your home country (the one whose GE branch you have the contract with) and then GE pays taxes to your host country, so you needn't worry about that.
After 5 years without CAS, well, it really depends on you, but you have good chances of becoming a manager/leader. Alwasy remember that merit alone isn't enough: you also need a good networking in order to have your merits acknowledged!
