Pros
9/80 schedule; love the off-Fridays. Very smart engineers with great minds.
Cons
Pay is not good. Little chance of getting promoted. Software developers get the short end of the stick when it comes to cost and schedule. Competence of software management from top down is concerning and unstable. Metrics are used against software engineers instead of being use to better manage projects. A lot of micro-managing. Lack of respect for employee personal life: Managers command engineers provide personal cell phone numbers so managers can call whenever they felt the need to ask questions or for the engineer to come in on weekends. GDLS cut funding for the Diversity and Inclusion Council. No annual bonuses for the everyday foot solder engineer, except for a $25 gift check for a Thanksgiving Butterball purchase. =/ A lot of lay-offs recently. No cultivation of young employees. Low rating of employee happiness.
