General Motors

• Good first job to have out of college.
• Guidance and resources to grow if you really push for it.
• Good benefits.
• Good work/life balance depending on the team.

• Does not pay as much as other tech companies for the same roles.
• Could place you in a role you're not suited for and/or overqualified for.
• Clash of old school corporate culture and new tech company culture.
• Your performance could depend on the type of manager you have.
• Working from home is allowed when necessary, but not encouraged.
• Limited PTO based on tenure, although unlimited sick days and most holidays are off.

Start adapting to more modern work-culture practices, competitive pay to today's standards, and remove the redundant steps of protocol to get small things approved.

There are a lot of hoops and people to find and talk to in order to get certain things done. Allowing more freedom will allow for more innovation.
