General Motors (GM) reviews

- do not care at all about career development even though they will preach to you that they do - managers do not care at all about the big picture of the company - treat college hires like dirt and give them no responsibility at all - tell you its very easy to move around within the company if a role is not a fit for you, HUGE LIE - All processes are non existent yet you have to follow them....nuff said - so many people in roles they are not qualified for and no one cares to train them - Training is a joke at this company and non existent for detailed skills - reward employees based on seniority not over intelligence and hard work In the end all the "promises" used to get me to commit were all lies when I actually got to GM.

* Poor leadership. There are a few decent managers, but the majority are overwhelming unsupportive and don't really "manage" much. In my experience, they would offer very little support and were very much "hands off" when it came to their jobs. * The company’s idea of "efficiency improvements" is laying off large groups of people without warning or explanation. You get an email or text one day telling you your job is gone. It’s a terrible way to treat people who’ve invested time and energy into the company. This constant threat of layoffs makes it hard to feel secure or motivated, and it creates a culture of fear. * Forced ranking is a nightmare. Management ranks a certain percentage of employees as “underperforming,” even when there’s no logical reason to do so. This practice just adds unnecessary stress and makes everyone more focused on competing against each other rather than working together. It’s a culture killer. * Heavy workload leading to burnout. I was expected to work late hours and would often have to work weekends to meet deadlines with no additional support from management. It’s not sustainable, and it’s frustrating to see how little the company cares about giving employees the resources they need to succeed.
