Pros
GMF offers a pretty flexible schedule, so it’s easy to work around appointments and the odd day off. Some managers are great to work for and care about your development. They have established guidelines, so you know your role within the company.
Cons
Some managers are terrible and have no sense of how to develop employees. They shuffle managers at random to give them the opportunity to learn new skills, but the same is hard to do as an analyst. Seeking outside training or education isn’t really embraced, even though they say they celebrate continuing education. There is a “this is the way it’s always been done so that’s how we do it now” attitude, and it’s hard to bring fresh ideas to the table. Even though they send out employee engagement surveys yearly, nothing seems to change.
