General Motors

The benefits are nice, but that's about it.

The people managers that get hired have zero experience in actually managing people. You're likely to end up with someone managing you that has no idea what the product you're working on actually does.

In order to actually get a promotion, you're compared to every other employee at the same level. So if you end up on a project that's not making as many moves, don't expect to get a promotion.

The managers will say that no one is going to get cut from your team, and what do you know? The next week, your team has been cut.

I would avoid this company at all costs. There are a variety of better tech options for developers in Austin. Do not even come here as a last resort; it's just Dell light.

Get out of technology, or actually start moving as fast as needed to compete in the tech space. You're just wasting good developers' time with bogus projects that get nowhere or are worth nothing.
