Process
I was given a HireVue interview shortly after I applied.
The first part is a one-sided interview with STAR type questions.
The second part is a coding challenge that involves two questions that could be considered LeetCode easy. You should know how to parse input, though.

Big company, good benefits, but ultimately talks out of both sides of their mouth
Software Engineer • Former Employee
Roswell, Georgia, United States
February 12, 2022
Pros: A giant company that will allow you to move to different functions.
Cons: A bloated company filled with middle managers that block the company's progress. Directives come from leadership, but then lower managers don't agree with the direction and stall progress.

Archaic Company Structure
Software Engineer • Former Employee
August 1, 2022
Pros: There's good job security and room to move around the company and grow your career. I can definitely understand why many people stay at GM for long periods of time.
Cons: The concept of non-technical managers was puzzling to me. The promotion structure was based too much on time served rather than on merit, which was frustrating. Many coworkers seemed to get by with doing little to nothing, with no consequences.
