"General Motors is a great place to work. They're a large company that has hands in almost anything you can think of, technical or non-technical. They've allowed me to cut my teeth as a new engineer, and working for such a storied company on exciting products that people depend on every day is a fantastic feeling. If you want to work on things that people will review in-person on YouTube, for example, GM is a great place to be!"
