Pros

The only pro left at GD is the compensation. They pay very well compared to the competition. It used to be a great place to work almost like a second family, no more.

Cons

Totally lost its direction. No investment in the future despite what they say. Laid off hundreds and hundreds only for the sake of making EBIT to target. Now they are forcing out the senior managers that built the business. This company used to be a great place to work; now it is a sweat shop. Benefits are cut every year; but they still pay well. Morale is terrible and there in no confidence in the management.

Pros

GD has lots of interesting projects to work on across multiple locations. If you want to make a career at GD, I don't think you would be bored because there is so much to work on. Work has been very stable over decades with no indication that that will change. Work life balance is also valued and generally very good outside of major project milestone deliveries.

Cons

Pay is competitive with defense industry but not private sector.
