Process
I first interviewed with the hiring manager on campus. A couple weeks later, I got a call saying they wanted me to come to Detroit for more interviews. They flew me there and took care of ground transportation. I had two one-hour interviews with the same hiring manager and other engineers from the same department.

General Motors Work Experiences
- 4.03Engineering • Former EmployeeMuncie, Indiana, United StatesAugust 15, 2009Pros: GM provides a good salary and benefits to both salary and hourly employees. The company is still large enough to be a major producer of vehicles.Cons: The UAW rules that have been established over the years now put the company at a competitive disadvantage. Toyota continues to get better, even though GM has closed the gap in quality. There is still bureaucracy in management and the UAW, which eliminates the possibility to make quick decisions, thus leaving GM behind the competition or being threatened by strikes by the UAW.
- 5.0Big Company, Enjoyed WorkEngineering • Current EmployeeJuly 2, 2021Pros: Lots of pros, big company.Cons: Not too many cons to say.
- 2.0Agree to disagreeEngineering • Former EmployeeSeptember 11, 2020Pros: Close to home for me.Cons: It's not about cars anymore, and it was never about people. It's just fantasy storytellers creating and selling their narrative.
