Please state if yours is a Z51 or not. Also, Chip will come along and be able to provide a specific GM document number for you about this condition. You can check with your dealer, but for some the solution is to lubricate a little bit on the backs of the pads, I think.
Anyway, hopefully Chip will be along soon with the definitive answer.

Try to push harder on the brakes for some miles, the squeal will certainly stop.
The OEM pads are certainly a bit better than the other GM cars and the more the pads can perform the more the squeal comes when the pads are under-exploited (in term of temperature).

What SwisStingray suggests might work for you, but in many cases it did not fully remedy the issue.

Rmevette,
Sorry that your brakes are squealing. I understand the displeasure when dealing with a matter like this. Although you're seeking opinions from others, I'd be happy to communicate your concerns with the Customer Experience Managers (CEM) at your GM dealer of choice. Please know that you're welcome to message us privately if you would like to discuss this further, or if you simply want this matter documented.
Kindly,
