Pros
  • Good mentorship from managers and senior devs.
  • Work with relevant languages and technologies.
  • Positive culture within the team.
  • Low-stress environment.
Cons

Being such a historic, corporate company, GM's efforts to transform and act as a trendy, tech-forward company are often lost.

Orientation was generic, largely irrelevant for me, and lasted months.

  • Moves a bit slow.
  • Lots of corporate restructuring (2 new managers in less than a year).
  • Experience is highly team dependent (I was on a great team).
  • Pay is quite low compared to industry standard.
  • Easy to feel complacent (almost too chill).
