DETROIT — General Motors plans to hire up to 1,500 workers to staff a new computer technology center outside Detroit.
It is part of a move to bring 90 percent of information technology in-house, which GM believes will make the company more nimble and efficient. The carmaker plans to hire 10,000 people at four new technology centers in the next three to five years.
Last month the company announced it would hire 500 people for a center in Austin, Texas. The remaining two sites haven’t been announced.
