Good people, but a toxic culture
Good people, but a toxic culture
GM has some very knowledgeable people.
Very capable technical abilities.
Good vacation benefits, 8% 401k match.
Parking at the tech center took way too long to fix (for a transportation company).
Culture at GM is degrading the good ol' boy network. There are connections from the senior leaders all the way down with buddies – perhaps not the “best” people in the roles. The “frozen” middle is still present in the hierarchy.
Toxic people, if they are buddies of management, are kept in the company and not appropriately dealt with.
Have more transparency top-down. Diagonal slices from executive leadership to the actual workers will improve efficiency and eliminate the muddy message working its way up through the org. Don’t venture away from your roots: a transportation company.
