Pros

Working at GD is not quite as bad as cleaning toilets in a truck stop beside an all-you-can-eat Sushi stand at a Flint Michigan gas station.

Cons

dont know what their doing what few benefits they offer are dwindling more and more. some mgrs engage in blatant discrimination and mgt don't seem to care some employees can be totally rude and jerks and management doesn't care.

Pros

Great place to start your career. Lots of good employees to help you advance your career. 4.5% on match on 6% contribution to 401k is good for a large company. Health incentives of $450 in Amazon gift cards is nice. 20% Discounts for verizon wireless.

Cons

Haven't won any new contracts in Maryland area in over 8 years. Large company attitudes of the employee should bend over backwards for the good of the company like working for free during all hands meetings and training. Extremely high overhead cost forces them to be stingy on pay and benefits. Promotions are more about who you know then how well you perform. Can't compete with some of the other contractors in terms of benefits and pay.

Pros

- Mostly 40 hour weeks - Easy work - Great place to work if you want to coast to retirement. There are several decade old projects that stick with the same technology they started with, so you won't need to worry about keeping your skills up to date

Cons

- Mediocre to average pay except for those in high positions - No bonuses - Your skills will die here if you get stuck on one of their aforementioned decade old projects, so it's not a good idea to stick around for too long if you're not at the tail end of your career
