Pros: Extensive training for new college hires through their Career Start Academy. Decent starting pay for entry-level, with a great 10% (target / variable) end-of-year bonus and a solid 401k match. The new college hire program seems to offer a faster-than-average pay increase year-over-year with a grade increase at the end of the program, incentivizing new hires to stay on board.

Cons: The new college hire program is a bit of a mess. I applied and interviewed for an "Entry Level Software Developer" role and got stuck doing IT operations. The interview and several conversations with my hiring manager seemed to obfuscate the fact that I was not being placed on a development team until my first day on the job. While GM does offer free resources for self-learning, I fear skill drain in this current position. Many other new college hires I have spoken with also feel they were "bait and switched". People that actually landed development roles from this opening seem to be an exception rather than the rule, which makes this whole situation seem intentional. This is a bit of a slap in the face to people with CS and CE degrees that hoped to apply the skills they just learned in school, but instead get stuck doing sysadmin work that anyone with a solid tech background could be trained to do.

Pros: - Not too stressful - Lot of learning opportunities

Cons: None that I can think of.

Pros: Benefits: * Work-life balance * Pay

Cons: Just joined, so none so far.
