GM is getting government bailout money so that they can move everything overseas. How great is that?

Being both contract employee and GM employee depending on the time frame in the last 30 years.

The need to say that one or the other is undesirable or lazy is not worthy of you or them.

The problem lies in middle management mostly not understanding how to complete a project in the most cost effective means while still maintaining style, immeidiate quality and long term reliability.

The premature release of the CVT is an example of upper management stupidity and middle management inability to express the stupidity of releasing a product the project engineers stated was not road ready.

Any huge corporation hasn’t the accountability necessary to track poor performance and flush it. Otherwise the upper echelons would be empty.

Oh they’ll be gone soon enough.

Yet another manifestation of the stellar management at GM. Keep the bailouts coming, otherwise…

GM HR is trying to force departments to layoff its contract employees, even though they are good workers. Then HR wants this department to fill these positions with GM direct undesireables from another department. Why doesn’t HR just get rid of the undesireables? They probably cost the company more and don’t work as hard as the contract employees. Plus they have to be retrained. Why is HR afraid to layoff GM salaried workers if they are useless?
