General Motors

A lot of different tech, projects, and smart people to gain more experience and knowledge from.

Competitive compensation and pretty good benefits (especially if you've been there for a few years).

Teams that work on the same systems do not communicate with each other much.

People do the same work without knowing about it until it's too late.

Some management tries to play a cut-throat game. Managers promise the business some new products behind the backs of their colleagues and then push the whole team to achieve those goals before anyone got the same idea and implemented it.

Higher management pushes for the following principles: "speak up," "it's on me," "innovate," and many others. The actual team managers say they very much agree with all of this to the business, but behind their backs, they say these principles are stupid. If you try to bring anything up to their attention, you can get your bonus cut, your salary won't increase, or they can even threaten you to be fired. All they care about is to deliver the requested set of features before the deadline. If it does not function properly during the release time, they will start pointing fingers and blaming other teams, certain team members, or other managers. Anything just to prove their work is great and the reason we are going to miss the deadline is somewhere else.

GM has way too many managers. The actual workers cannot get their words up to the business's attention. Good thing they also have architects who can pause the development rush and straighten things out before it's too late.
