GM Has Done a 180 in the Wrong Direction
GM Has Done a 180 in the Wrong Direction
- Good recognition program
- Bonus payout has been great
- Good relocation package
Recently, many experienced employees left due to a voluntary severance package, leaving a huge knowledge gap.
An entire office of 900+ was laid off due to an IT office shutdown that supported GM's main online presence.
It seems to be trending towards outsourcing software.
With layoffs, workloads have increased, making working at GM not worth it for the average pay.
Upper management has not taken feedback well on return to office.
GM hyper-focuses skill sets, so it might be tough to gain exposure with many tools or be a true full-stack engineer.
Do not lay off an entire office before at least identifying the critical projects those people support.
You may have just hamstrung your entire vehicle inventory online presence for dealers and customers without knowing.
