Pros

Laid back No timeline or deadlines Moving target on any Project No accountability Leave work at 5:00 PM

Cons

Actually this company is Americredit that was rebranded as GM Financial after bankruptcy. Since then due to influx of budget (tax payer money), there has been over hiring at higher pay to employees. However, there is flaws in every step of the way. Firstly the onboarding process is horrible (its backwards). You get to sit in orientation after a month. Every department is inconsistent. However mostly the culture is geared towards micromanagement. There are many executives from the Americredit days leading to resistance of change in the ways things are done. The workstyle is very traditional and siloed. No collaboration between team members is encouraged. You will see people coming to work, sitting in their cubes and leaving home at 5:00 as there is no real work. Overhiring and more managers lead to situations where favoritism come in play. There is lack of leadership in the executive level as managers or some toxic employees can do whatever they want. HR is non existent. There is no control in terms of professionalism. Power play seen at many levels. Basically a very flawed system. Senior leaders take poor decisions and cannot discipline troubled people. You will be in trouble if you speak up against all the injustice. Also lot of harassment and bullying is prevalent. Some woman managers and executives have created groups and target individuals. Managers hire their own people and create their own little empires. Very fraudulent and broken environment. Employee morale is very low. You cannot really learn anything or grow here. You will forget your skills. It cannot be saved from ultimate demise!

Pros

Benefits were better than most companies

Cons

Micromanagement. Lots of drama. Poor Management in the newly formed Damage in Transit team. Inconsistent communications, Processes changed based on what dealer was complaining the most. Ok to pay one dealer and not another with the same claim variables. Manager would work after hours and call us on our personal cells during non- working hours. From what I saw, I would never buy a new GM car until I asked for all the in transit documentation. Don't be fooled by the "GM" in the name. This group is not what you may think they are. Stay away.
