Pros

I like the fact that diversity is embraced and there are equal opportunities for women here. Austin is a great facility, a newly converted warehouse with a lot of nice breakout areas.

Cons

Too much emphasis is placed on diversity, which has caused some demotions and put certain people on pedestals who should not be there. GM wants xx% of its managers to be women by 20yy, which is great, but it will come at the expense of a lot of existing staff members.

Advice to Management

Focus on making the best vehicles on the road. Don't try to capitalize on equal opportunities for women, as the press already notices these things.
