Great Work Culture - If you're on the right team

Pros: GM has an excellent work culture with kind employees and good work-life balance.
Three weeks PTO to begin, and it eventually increases to 20 days, plus company holidays, which are numerous.
If you're placed on a team which aligns with your interests, you will probably enjoy working here.
The tech is pretty modern, and there is a lot of room for learning and growth.
Managers here are excellent in my experience.
Cons: Bait and switch hiring practice. During hiring, I was told my position would be software developer with team TBD, and I ended up being placed in an operational role with little to no software development.
If this happens to you, try to switch or wait it out until a new position is available, and be open with your manager about this.
