Pros

Some of my peers on my level (non-leadership) were very approachable.

Cons

I worked at GMF, During my time there, I observed multiple rounds of layoffs approximately every 2–3 years, Each round disproportionately affected women and employees from underrepresented backgrounds and people of color. For example, in the most recent round, three women and two people of color were part of the reductions. This recurring trend was concerning and contributed to my decision to leave.

Pros

I'm a senior-level software engineer, previously worked at tech companies, and this job is relatively easy for me. No on-call, work-life balance is good. I usually get everything done within 2-week sprints.

Cons

GMF is the true definition of work hard, not smart. There are so many dumb engineers. There was a time I had to work with non-technical teams like prod support, and it was quite frustrating. They wanted my team to build an automation so they didn't have to work manually as if anything is possible and there is no limitation within the company. I didn't even create a backlog item as it was a waste of time.
