Pros
- Great if you are a contractor (ie not a real GD employee, since they get paid for their overtime) - Approachable senior management - A lot of smart people
Cons
- Long, unpaid overtime. - The 9/80 bit they try to sell to you is a lie, I know no one whose project is actually on 9/80 - They have the ability to let you telework, but it is looked down upon. - No reward for putting in extra effort or doing a good job - If you do a good job, you will be the one fixing everyone else's mistakes - Pay increase is only based on time, not performance - No sick time included in benefits, if you get sick you need to use your vacation days - They put on a good facade during your interview session, but don't be fooled by the nice hotel rooms they put you up in. - Time off is a myth at GD - Little to no acknowledgment for a job well done
