Typical disclosed pay
A $140,000 disclosed median lands near the middle of the wage distribution (62nd percentile vs $124,488 nationally).
Shrinking LCA footprint
FY2025 filings fell 11.3% from FY2024 (212 → 188).

What to check before working with General Motors
General Motors needs a three-way read: H-1B pay (745 LCAs), safety (grade D), and WARN history (3 notices); none of those alone is the rating.
- H-1B median is $140,000 across 526 disclosed-wage positions (of 745 total filings), benchmark any offer against it and the metro prevailing wage. Compare with peers
- Safety grade D reflects a DART rate read against the Manufacturing average of 0.77 - a relative benchmark, not an absolute verdict. How grades work
- 3 WARN layoff notices on file, review the timing before counting on job stability. Reading WARN notices
General Motors's figures are legally filed public records (DOL, OSHA, state WARN), not reviews or vendor estimates; a missing row is not proof the underlying activity never happened.
