A senior in-house counsel is reportedly among 15 employees at General Motors Co. (GM) who were “removed” from their jobs over the faulty ignition-switch scandal. And a report from an internal investigation lists two pages of recommended changes in GM’s legal department.
GM chief executive Mary Barra said Thursday that some of the 15 employees “were removed because of what we consider misconduct or incompetence. Others have been relieved because they simply didn’t do enough: They didn’t take responsibility; didn’t act with any sense of urgency.”
