Pros

Pay and benefits are good. However, that comes at a cost.

Cons

Some of the most incompetent management I've seen in my life. You will spend countless hours in meetings that add zero value. The way a decision gets made is: 9 meetings, 15 managers, 8 directors, and 120 PowerPoint slides later, something might get done. HR is the most worthless and only there to serve management. My 7-year-old could run HR here. At least he wouldn't mess things up and would play with his toys. Since Mary Barra has gotten in, the stock price has gone nowhere. If I could rate 0 stars for the CEO, I would do it.

Advice to Management

Get rid of the CEO, get rid of all the levels of upper management and hire outsiders to do those jobs, and get a real Board of Directors.
