General Motors – “Lots of travel and bureaucracy”

Pros

General Motors is a global company and being on the global team I was able experience things that I wouldn't have otherwise.

Cons

I worked for a great boss who actually interested in seeing me succeed. The problem is that GM is a ancient company rife with politics and "old boys club" mentality?

Maybe things changed after the bankruptcy.

Advice to Senior Management

Tear down the walls and give your young talent an opportunity to thrive. Remove the "lifers" from the organization or, at least, move them to a position where they don't impede the growth of the ambitious.
