Review from Operations Dept
My leadership has full faith and trust in me. I am their go to group leader. This makes me feel valued. We all share the same frustration of hiring freezes and me not being able to be turned from contract to fulltime. I also like that my leadership is very intelligent and helped me develop.
Review from Operations Dept
probably need to promote by skill n not diversity
Review from Operations Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
communication with the people who are actually on the line, and listening their expert opinions and suggestions. We are all here for the same reason, to make a QUALITY product and do efficient work...
Review from Operations Dept
Not in touch with what really needs to be done.
Review from Operations Dept
Following their own rules and incorporating integrity into their behaviors
Review from Operations Dept
need to be better two way communication between union workers and management. Atmosphere within the plant doesn't encourage input from line workers, management doesn't value their input
Review from Operations Dept
We are told that this company puts the customer first, the reality is and always has been productivity over everything else. We talk the talk but don’t walk the walk.
Review from Operations Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The pay is competitive and insurance isn't bad.
Review from Operations Dept
Automatic 401 contribution, whether I contribute or not
Review from Operations Dept
Annual Profit Sharing ( in lieu of pay raises!)
Review from Operations Dept
Profit sharing, vacation allotments, health insurance
Review from Operations Dept
I feel like profit sharing is
Review from Operations Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I believe that GM/UAW are always looking for cost savings, be it the company, plant or individuals. For example. Health insurance- why would GM or the uaw not want to share the cost of health care with other providers if the spouse has insurance. Look into it. Go foots the whole bill instead.Crazy
Review from Operations Dept
I've been there 20 years. 10 of it with no wage increase. Also in that time cola was taken away. My bonus has a cap. To summarize 1. I'm owed 10 years of wage raises 2. I want cola back 3. Bonus based on company profit should have no cap
Review from Operations Dept
Still a good ol boys club
Review from Operations Dept
More options and having a pension.
Review from Operations Dept
Need to implement some form of retirement. A 401k is essential to our retirement. We work hard physically and mentally to keep GM at its highest standardard and we deserve and should have a retirement to look forward too.
Review from Operations Dept

Always work to accomplish goals on time together

Review from Operations Dept
There are no best things if you do not have the right Team Leader. I'm in the process of rebuilding a team. Trying to undo what the last team leader did is no easy task.
Review from Operations Dept
I have a great team with great team participation
Review from Operations Dept
They follow directions and they show up for work on time.
Review from Operations Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
we need management to listen and take what we say to heart. GM Corporate has ZERO LOYALTY to their workforce!!! While union workers preach and try to instill buy American, when the corporate GM looks for every oportunity to cost US jobs and doesn't care that US jobs create US sales of their product
Review from Operations Dept
They really just need better support from management.
Review from Operations Dept
The people would work better together if they weren't so miserable. But management like to play the divide and conquer game.
Review from Operations Dept
Active Listening Class, Rules if effect meetings. A cultural change that impowers people (much like Saturn before 2005)
Review from Operations Dept
Let the company run the business and let the workers run the plant. New rules on sleeves for example. Crazy why not look into what injuries you’ve had where sleeves could have prevented those said injuries and adapt to what makes sense. Money wasting
Review from Operations Dept

Review from Operations Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
I think there should be more input from workers
Review from Operations Dept
Labor relations ...weak investigative process( If 5 people are involved in a dispute 1 gets questioned!) Old school good ole boy networking.
Review from Operations Dept
Working together instead of worrying about our jobs
Review from Operations Dept
Its toxic. More work, less people. Everything you do is against a rule. They want anyone making a fair wage gone to replace them with sub tier folks. If live of money is the root of all evil, General Motors is the poster child. Need to stop harrassing the employees. Numbers numbers numbers..enough
Review from Operations Dept
Simply fix the machines instead of doing preventative maintenance. They you would have the right to point blame at employees. But dont make it our fault because the machines dont work

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
invest in US jobs and show the workforce you care about the workers and families here in the USA and not about taking any and every opportunity to ship good jobs to foreign countries..."TAKE CARE OF US AND WE'LL TAKE CARE OF YOU"
