Pros

Great perks and fringe benefits, medical and dental benefits, 9/80 workweek, flexible start time

Cons

Poor leadership and management skills, only 10% salary raise if you get promoted internally, promotion is very slow and biased. No open door policy, you won't see upper management involvement at all

General Atomics strives to keep as many doors open to our team as possible. That includes upper management, but sometimes we fall short. We appreciate your patience and feedback as we continue working to improve.

Pros

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Cons

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
