Falls all over its own feet - Anonymous employee General Dynamics Information Technology Employee Review

Completely silo'd from other parts of the parent company. No opportunity for cross-training. Has a lot of business that has nothing to do with IT. Formerly Anteon, purchased by GD. Culture slow to change from former company. Focuses too much on processes that don't work contrary to common sense. Overly bureaucratic; difficult to get anything done. Younger workers are not provided any learning opportunities and are taught to follow processes vs. thinking critically about problems. Poor teamwork between functional departments overall; very adversarial. Functional department managers are very territorial. Poor management leadership. Few opportunities for advancement. Company binged on hiring in 2010, started attrition in 2012 and has since laid off and demoted many people.
