Pros

9day fortnight is useful, although workload doesn't always allow

Cons

Strange culture. No accountability. A lot of milestones are unachievable but management persist to chase these deadlines.

Pros

Pay Rate is good. Benefits start day 1. products being manufactured are very cool.

Cons

Now I can't speak about the entirity of GDLS, and I'm sure that all of the facilities are not run the same. That said, the Eynon, PA facility needs to have a real overhaul done by corporate. Upper level management is very self oriented, and doesn't focus enough on contract management. The only company I've worked for that had to shut down 2 entire shifts of employees and let go mid level management because contracts were allowed to run out without having renewals and new order contracts ready to take their place. This of course had no effect on the upper level management, who didn't even bat an eye at letting over 150 employees go. Also I am a very team oriented person, but my peers were more of a clique. and if you weren't in it you knew.

Pros

Decent Pay; 6am-230pm workday; sometimes we get over time; 401K; decent healthcare

Cons

treated like the military; constantly forced to travel around the world for up to a year at a time; management does not even know what our SCA job duties are; forcing us to work outside of our pay scale to save the company money; Management is willing to work us 10+ hours a day/7 days a week if they want too; We are forced to sit at work for 8 hours a day when there is no work to be done, but we get written up if we take a longer lunch break or if we fall asleep watching netflix. This has been constant for the last 3 years during the winter months; under paid for the kind of equipment we work on.
