Pros

I came from tech where you get good bonuses and stock grants and stock employee purchase. General Dynamics is salary and a small bonus less than 10% and that is all. They have good benefits and the work is rewarding.

Cons

Some people can move up, but it's often that it is just people who had a good boss that stayed and brought them along. Lots of senior managers get canned or quit, which leaves their next level kind of adrift. I guess that is not unique, but here they often hire people at a level above the people already in the role, and that can be frustrating.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
