Great teammates and learning experience, but leadership lacks direction
Great teammates and learning experience, but leadership lacks direction
I had the chance to work with very professional colleagues, from whom I learned a lot. Team communication in my area was smooth, and my managers were always respectful and supportive. GM offers excellent health insurance, and one nice benefit is having the last week of the year off (although it’s deducted from vacation days). Work-life balance overall was reasonable.
At the higher levels of the company, there was often noticeable disorganization and a lack of clear long-term direction. This led to frequent last-minute changes, shifting priorities, and impactful announcements without enough preparation.
Additionally, salaries are not as competitive as those of other tech companies.

Quality Assurance Engineer
Overall, easy questions. They asked questions from my experience and resume. I applied online, and the recruiter called me the same day. First, I had an interview with the hiring manager, which was pretty cool. The technical interview also went well
Manufacturing Engineer Intern
Was only given a behavioral interview that consisted of 2 behavioral questions and 2 technical questions. It follows the STAR concept very thoroughly. If you don't answer one part of the STAR method, they will ask you about it in more detail.

Heard back about a month after applying. Scheduled interview for next week, and they rescheduled on me. Single-round interview with engineers from the department I am working at, with behavioral and resume technical questions.
