Pros

Well established development process, good benefits, flexible hours

Cons

Middle layer management know nothing about technical work and they are not qualified for those positions. For example, an algo engineering manager may have never opened Matlab in his whole career. A software manager may have never write one line of code.

Pros

Good salary, decent benefits, potential for good products.

Cons

Management is more concerned with playing the political game rather than making great vehicles. Overworked after layoffs. No support and mixed messages from senior leaders.

Pros

GM has cultivated a work culture of openness, collaboration and innovation. GM's mission of zero emissions, zero congestion, and zero crashes is front and center. It is rewarding to work at a company that prioritizes creating a positive work culture and follows through on its commitments both internal and external.

Cons

GM has established a long term focus. To deliver the mobility products and services of the future GM has been investing a lot of resources into expanding its workforce and technical expertise. New hires are expected to play an active part in defining their role within the organization, and are given opportunities to influence the direction of their work and the organization as a whole. Not everyone is suited for this style of professional freedom and responsibility.
