General Motors

Not many. A good pay for a job right out of college. Young environment, since they have hired about 3,000 college hires nationally in the past year for IT.

Here are some of the issues:

• Do not care at all about career development, even though they will preach to you that they do.
• Managers do not care at all about the big picture of the company.
• Treat college hires like dirt and give them no responsibility at all.
• Tell you it's very easy to move around within the company if a role is not a fit for you; this is a HUGE LIE.
• All processes are nonexistent, yet you have to follow them. Nuff said.
• So many people are in roles they are not qualified for, and no one cares to train them.
• Training is a joke at this company and nonexistent for detailed skills.
• Reward employees based on seniority, not on intelligence and hard work.

In the end, all the "promises" used to get me to commit were all lies once I actually got to GM.

Actually care about turning around GM and show this in your actions. Lead by example.

You all need to understand that the middle management (the people who are GM lifers 15+ years) have not and will not buy into the IT transformation, therefore they should be fired, period. Otherwise, the company will go under... again.
