Not a bad company to work for.

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Always room for growth within the organization as a whole, but you have to go after it. Many of the contracts are remote locations which can make it hard but it can be done. GD also works hard to retain talent and will work to find you a new position if your contract ends.

Cons

Pay is simply not that competitive. It is hard to retain key employes when the customer and management won't fight to pay them what they are worth.

Extremely dysfunctional environment where fact always fails to sway religion.

Senior software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

GDIT does offer great benefits and your work hours will be decent but your salary will be low. I never had a problem getting time off when I needed it.

Cons

It is a good place to work if you don't expect competency and ability to lead to promotion. The only way to be promoted is to demonstrate your ability to just get along for 10+ years. You will not be appreciated for working long hours, having ability, or getting things done. Best thing to do is just what your told and nothing more, and don't think. This is not a team environment, this is stovepipe factory where all solutions are dictated to individuals who do not collaborate.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company seems stable on and has large diversity of contracts. The benefits were on par with other technology companies.

Cons

The cooperation between the divisions is nil and if your contract gets expired you are on your own in finding means of funding or they will lay you off.
