Pros

9/80 flexible work schedule. Ability to work remotely when needed, when approved.

Cons

Unstable work environment, sudden work stoppages and budget shortcomings. If you can't charge a chargeable task and you reach % overhead / week automatic layoff. Little to no communication at all between managements, multi-disciplinary teams, etc. Uncompensated overtime mandatory and breaking your back to achieve recognition is only average performance. Massive disconnect between program management and technical management. Disconnect between management and employees, all 3 of my managers did not know what I did.

Pros

A lot of assets at your disposal, it was great to see the support for the first quarter with the company. It was some seriously strong Kool-Aid for that time.

Cons

Everything was reviewed like a federal project and no one knew how to make a decision. It was being run by a group of talented Fed Government guys that had no idea how to conduct business outside of those channels.

Pros

GD pays well for the area, they support flexible work options including telecommuting, and their products help keep soldiers safe.

Cons

Opportunities for women and minorities are limited, the company is struggling to capitalize on its portfolio, and it has been laying off staff for 3 years with no end in sight.
