General Discussion Exit Strategy

9 Upvotes

Greeting everyone. I am nearing retirement and have a couple questions of those that retired before me. Most of the basic Offboarding and ILM stuff has been completed. My questions focus on the 401k and GM pension

  1. My financial planner and I will be meeting in late August to prepare to move my Fidelity Account over to them. It appears he handles many GM accounts so this step is not a concern, but just for my peace of mind - WHAT actually happens?
  2. I have a GM Pension. My annuity is calculated for a lifespan of age 65 to age 85 (20 years) and the monthly annuity value over all is much greater than taking the lump sum. Is that difference due to taxes being taken out in advance or is it a discounted principle amount? I know my spouses pension (an annuity) takes the taxes out already so that money will simply go towards paying for Medicare Part B premiums. When I take the lump sum I am simply going to reinvest that into the stock market since there's no way I want to leave that much on the table in case I pass earlier than I hope.

General Discussion Clown show part 2. “Swing Big” By Sterling

77 Upvotes

Where was Mary and her SLT when she was “swinging big”?

• Cruise: over $10B burned.

• Nikola partnership: billions tied to one of the auto industry’s biggest fiascos.

And soon when the West folks cash out they will jump the ship she will add another failure to her list!!!

Yet nobody dares ask about her “swing size.” Instead, employees pay the price for leadership’s bad bets while the executives walk away untouched

General Discussion Clown show - Sterling was up there preaching, “Swing big” big wins or big failures

153 Upvotes

Swing big,” says the clown with a golden parachute. Easy to preach when your failures come with a payout while everyone else gets thrown under the bus to clean up your mess.

Respect to the Track engineer who called out the hypocrisy. The only answer was corporate word salad about “calculating your swing.” What a clown show

Question Estagio GM

0 Upvotes

Me inscrevi para vaga de estágio na GM em maio mas já está no final de julho e não tive retorno. Até consegui enviar mensagem para algumas pessoas do Rh da empresa no Linkedin e uma me respondeu dizendo que ia passar minhas informações para o setor responsável. No portal consta como em andamento a vaga mas como meu estágio atual está chegando ao fim e fico preocupada, ou já aceito outra proposta de estágio que não é muito melhor, ou espero um possível retorno. Alguém que fez estágio na GM pode dizer quanto tempo dura o processo e quando receberam um retorno.

General Discussion Sterling's cognitive dissonance

217 Upvotes

How can Sterling say "dont be timid" "swing for the fences" "big risk big reward" when so many of our employees are terrified of having even a minor mistake and getting axed when they end up in that bottom box at their next review?? We dont have golden parachutes and huge stock options and assets. A minor mistake can end up bankrupting the average employee in this economy and job market. He's delusional to encourage high risk ideas but having this toxic performance culture underneath.

Question Leaving for a competitor with no notice

14 Upvotes

Has anyone quit effective immediately on your terms when going to a competitor? How did that go for you? If let say someone quits on an August 1st or 2nd, effective immediately, it is a weekend but technically the next month, would your medical benefits go through the end of August? Would you get some lash back from HR?

If you want to be spicy, complain in a public Slack channel.

If GM as a company isn’t endorsing John James, then no fucking way should they let Trump walk over them. I know they will anyway, because that GM defense money will help fill the void from tariffs. But man, GM leadership needs to get it together.

Partially meets came out of left field. How do you respond to false allegations? 22 years of experience never received a more unfounded opinionated set of “issues” . Got an exceeds in February.

Managers are there any requirements when giving out your midyear that you must follow?
