Pros

Good culture and fairly good work-life balance.

Cons

I am actively looking for a new job. Despite my manager telling me I'm performing excellently, the raises only keep up with inflation unless you jump up a level. At that point, you are then getting underpaid for your new level.

Also, I was very disappointed that GM IT is not really allowing for permanent full remote work.

Advice to Management

Give real raises to high-performing people.

I like GM's culture, and I want to stay, but even though I'm accomplishing more than four other developers put together and I have a lot of business knowledge, I can't stay any longer because the pay gap is too much.
