Pros

GM has an excellent 401k plan and the benefits are still competitive. Compensation and bonuses are above average. Employees have extensive discounts on company products & some online retail stores. Product quality has improved dramatically.

Cons

GM has a top - down management mode of operation. The company tends to be reactive more than proactive when dealing with problems. The employeee feedback process is counterproductive. Employees are cumbered with excessive administration duties.

GM provides opportunities in different functions, locations throughout the world. The company is reinventing itself post bankruptcy, so lots of challenges

Pros

-The pay is amazing. I think there is no better pay compare to GM in the automotive industry for inter or coop student. - They pay for your housing (all furnished) if you live 50 mile away from your work assignment. - They gave me good assignements - The salary people are very nice. - The staff members are very nice ( you can walk to the plant's manager with no problem)

Cons

As we all know, the company is not doing good as it used to. the UAW workers give so much trouble to the student specially when you work as a production supervisor. Some of them are not friendly at all. Overall I had a good experience working at GM
