Pros

Pay is competitive, benefits okay - though generally declining each year. Savannah area is nice, except the brutally hot summers. Aircraft are world class and top level executives at GD have spend a fortune developing the company's infrastructure and R&D.

Cons

These is no top to bottom org chart view-able by employees or public. But if one could review such a list of positions and reports I am certain it would highlight the top heavy and ineffective management structure discussed by many other reviewers. It seems like many positions are simply favors to friends or family - not really needed; or not at all the best / most qualified persons for the responsibilities required to be effective.

Big corporate politics at times. Some people just love to point fingers. Rules that are very excessive due to incompetence, instead of just firing morons.
