Not everyone is eligible. Here are some possible reasons for ineligibility, according to this page:

Reasons for Ineligibility

Applicants may not qualify for participation in the Global Entry program if they:

Are subjects of an ongoing investigation by any federal, state or local law enforcement agency;
Are inadmissible to the United States under immigration regulation, including applicants with approved waivers of inadmissibility or parole documentation;
Cannot satisfy CBP of their low-risk status (e.g. CBP has intelligence that indicates that the applicant is not low risk; CBP cannot determine an applicant's criminal, residence or employment history); and/or;
