Pros

There is a vast area of groups to work in at GM, from purchasing to engineering to R&D.

It can be difficult to switch from one department to another, but with persistence the change can be made.

I currently work in the hybrid group and the work is very challenging and intriguing. It is definitely a good area to be in at GM (or any auto company).

Cons

No raises, increasing costs of healthcare, no bonuses, ingrained management behavior, and global engineering is shifting work overseas.

Advice to Management

Increase the focus on fuel-saving technologies.
