Competitive benefits, good work environment
Competitive benefits, good work environment
- Innovative mindset.
- Willingness to trust junior employees with large projects.
- Plenty of opportunities to tackle interesting problems and learn new skills.
- Great people.
- Competitive compensation package.
- Large bureaucracies often make it difficult to acquire the necessary resources to meet deadlines.
- Projects can be agonizingly slow moving when realistically they should take much less time.
- Experienced some requirement creep.
- Working in multiple time zones can mean many late nights and early mornings. The line between on and off-the-clock time can become blurred. Not uncommon in the industry, but still not ideal for maintaining a good work-life balance.
What GM has accomplished in their insourcing effort is absolutely commendable. Hopefully, over the next few years, they can continue to remove some of the overly-bureaucratic and outdated internal mechanisms so that innovation can increase even more.
Keep hiring great people and stay on the innovative track!

I was given a HireVue and then a coding assessment. Both went pretty well. HireVue is a weird format, but the questions were fine. They asked about non-technical things.

Easy. Hirevue, basic technical questions, and a coding challenge. The interview consisted of two hiring managers from different locations, both occurring back-to-back. Pretty simple process. Got laid off two years later, though.
