Pros

There are no positive words to say about GDIT

Cons

The CIO openly admitted that she has NO background in IT! The Senior Leadership is shady in that they will stab you in the back and smile in your face. They expect you to know what happened in meetings about your project even though they DON'T invite you to meetings about your own project you are leading. The expectation of working hours is if you work 40-50 hours per week, you are doing the minimum. They want you to work 50-70+ hours per week and if you don't, they wonder why things don't get done. Expectations are NOT realistic at this company and they are continuously promising deliverables that are not realistic. Senior Leadership routinely ignore the advice of Project Engineers recommendations. When a project doesn't go the way they want it to, they then try the recommendation and take credit for the idea that wasn't theirs in the first place. This is common mantra across the board at GDIT.

Pros

The company has your back; it shows how much it cares for its employees. Personnel moves are done in a way that makes sense, and they often put the right person in the right job and make changes quickly when necessary.

Cons

As contractors, you are bound to what the customer asks. And there is not much control over it, since you are contractually bound to support that customer. Even then, GDIT corporate makes sure to reach a good middle ground when changes are requested.

Pros

Good pay and flexible telecommute options

Cons

Extremely basic benefit offerings. There also seems to be a very wide chasm between GDIT internal (management/corporate) and front-line staff who are focused on the contract.
