Overall, GM of Canada was a good place to work. Initially, it provided a great benefits package and opportunity for training. However, due to economic times, things have changed for employees at GM.
Old-school thinking and management styles.
Too many layers of middle management.
Very little room for career advancement.
Unionized hourly labor force, generally difficult to work with, which inhibits growth and advancement of the company.
Old boys' club.
GM needs to develop and retain new leaders of tomorrow. There is too much emphasis on the way things were done. A complete overhaul of the company is required by someone outside the industry.
My experience was excellent from start to finish. The entire process went very smoothly and was handled with great professionalism. Both the HR team and the managers were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and supportive throughout. Everything was well
Easy screening. But very competitive to get in. Screening is usually 15 minutes, and HR asks about your qualifications and your passion. It's easy. You must be convincing in order to get the job.
Applied online, and within a week, I received an email to set up a 45-minute call on Microsoft Teams. The interview contained two people currently working in the field, interviewing me and asking questions primarily using the STAR format.
