Former Employee – worked at General Motors full-time for more than a year
Pros – It was a great atmosphere to work with some very enthusiastic and innovative people ,mind you this was in my department ,and this was powertrain controls,one of my colleague had abt 8 patents(there was a very vibrant patent filing team activity which was happening when i was working) !
All the resources in terms of books, articles, latest technology are open to you through internal GM website ,which are otherwise are very closed in other companies on a comparative basis .
Depends on ur project,lead and manager,fortunately everything was just about right for me i felt, it was very less work pressure !
Very good on-site opportunities (again depends on lot of factors) . this is specific to my team .
Cons – Lot of work gets delayed coz work comes from US and due to remote accessing there is a lot of dependence on the US counterparts if ur project is US based .
Advice to Senior Management – Have some good advertisement strategies inspite of having better technology i think its the lack of proper communication to the end-users(customers) ,GM is facing some problems ! Otherwise things look fine so far .
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
