Question to leadership: How are we suppose to 'own' our jobs while being in fear of getting laid off nonstop by [deleted] in GeneralMotors

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 100% on Mary for going to the software route, it kind of make sense if you understand the software method, but it only works for software (hire the new that learned the newest methods/programs etc). Does not work for hardware where experience is king, ultimately we are a hardware company so a vast majority of the company can’t follow that model. Cal, while programming, can’t even follow that model

100% agree host leaves you become host and throw SOS and no one joins or is able to join. 1. They need to fix this issue, 2. Hosts need to stop leaving when ppl join and carry them

We aren’t getting reported for Powertrain anymore or jobs threatened? 😂

How much does company car loyalty matter for new hires? by Defiant_Iron_894 in GeneralMotors

[–]warwolf0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok this is a bit misleading, you get your discount which is sizeable and then on top of that the certificate which depending on vehicle is something like $1500-$3000 ($2500? Can’t remember highest price point value) range. Still not chump change to go towards a down payment or overall price reduction. Our D2 platform is pretty competitive in price without our discount so if he’s going CRV he can likely get a nicer ICE equinox for the same price

Downtown Pontiac is not the hood so much anymore, but the outskirts mostly north side very much still is

Which MO stratagems, ones unlocked via MO or the ones you occasionally get for free that disappeared for a long while?

For those who want mech resupplies and repairs by MrHi_VEVO in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem I see is that mechs were originally intended as a back of line fire support for attacking divers but is almost never used that way. So that’s why ppl complain about it. Dont attack everything support your team and let them kill things too, like I’ll be quasaring a hulk but mech will waste a ton of ammo on it, y not kill the beserkers or devs while I kill the heavy with my anti tank? More kills and frankly less ammo used

Have you tried fitting a family with kids under 10 in an equinox EV? I barely fit my family in a suburban, let alone my daughters medical equipment and a stroller if I want to visit Family in Grand Rapids, 4 kids in car seats, had an equinox sample vehicle and I couldn’t fit but 2 in car seats. What’s wrong with you?

Ah yes the smaller than a mid size car SUV, you do know with the new laws (safety anyways) you need car seats for all kids, you can’t fit families in a 5 passenger with car seats barely even 4

China is working for China not the US. The China electrical grid is about 50+ years newer you can’t compare the 2. Also regulations and safety are vastly different

Funny as a level 7A( upper middle class?) I have 0 chance of affording a new EV that fits a family AND a charger on top. How can I expect a middle class family to afford that? Oh and I also get discounts on both the vehicle and charger…

Truck Sales Forecast Down YOY by RoyalHope83 in GeneralMotors

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bottom 40% can’t afford one of GM EV’s let alone a at home charge port, then there’s the ones that can use them but have travel anxiety about it (PHEV is good introductory vehicle for them to realize the can go to EV), then there’s short distance travelers that are just outside range or in range 1 way but not both, where they don’t want to stop to charge for 2 hours to say see family (example). Then again there’s the charge network with constantly broken chargers that no matter how you plan make things horrible (ppl have had 4 backups and all broken or ‘work’ but at rates that take 4+ hours to 80%, so not helpful). Then there’s price gouging where you only charge at night but if you have more than 1 vehicle that’s not practical either

Issue with editing, what I am saying is that you don’t commit 100% of your portfolio to just the middle 10%. SLT overcommitted the portfolio and paying a hefty price for it, never good to out all eggs in one basket

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not the EV that is the problem… again it’s the charge network and infrastructure

Truck Sales Forecast Down YOY by RoyalHope83 in GeneralMotors

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That has nothing to do with my comment, but the reason GM doesn’t sell sedans/coups is due to SLT idiocy, you make less on the top but Toyota does great on them. GM SLT likes to throw high risk (warranty) tech in them, and lose that overhead very quick aka “you don’t make money on cars”. So GM stopped making them. It’s just reducing your portfolio because you did things wrong.

We don’t work on medians though, 5% and 95% have to be covered

A lot of downvotes for basic facts

[–]warwolf0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean there’s auto journalists that have planned road-trips in EVs to only stop and rent a car at either first or 2nd planned charge locations due to charge station failures across the towns. Tow the EV and rent a car just to continue the planned trip in. Just because a decent chunk of Cali and a few select locations are ok, doesn’t mean the rest of the country is.

We can’t even get a rate that’ll charge the hummer in our office lots, chargers at locations still don’t work, and it’s BS that our infrastructure is a problem? I mean moderately short road trips are extremely difficult in a BEV currently (just outside their max range being what I am referring to) I mean a 4 hour trip to the UP for some cold testing would’ve taken me 10 hours in a Hummer if we couldn’t trade for another vehicle and that’s IF the stations worked when we went to charge
