Pros

I think GDIT is truly a great stepping stone for resume and experience.

Cons

GDIT's salary ranges are low, internal growth is said to be important but actuality of movement/growth within the organization is not the case.

Pros

The pay was very good in the past, especially because NATO contractors outside the USA can avoid most income taxes. However, the pay has come down in recent years. If you want to live overseas, this can be a great way to do that.

Cons

GDIT's business is to win US government contracts and staff them. Employees are assets which are used to staff the contracts. The company doesn't care about its people, but that isn't unusual. If you accept a job overseas, the company will pay your moving expenses. If you quit the job before the contract ends (typically 3 years), you may need to pay to move your things back to the USA. That could cost a lot. Working with the US government and military is very bureaucratic, very political, and very chaotic. This is almost entirely the fault of the US government and military. What might take a small company 6 months to do will take a contractor like GDIT 2 or 3 years with many project changes and even cancellations and restarts. It's a frustrating environment for someone who wants to accomplish something.

Pros

The people are smart for the most part.

Cons

Government work has a lot of red tape. If the government decides to cut funding for a project, they'll still expect the same amount of work completed by half the people and they'll blame you for not being able to keep up. I've had some very bad experiences with HR at GDIT as well.
