Interesting work but tough industry sector

Pros

The work done by GD Canada (and other Defence companies) saves lives and aides the nation's defence foreces to protect that country.

Cons

GD Canada has been going through a downsizing exercise for the past 5 years and there appears to be no end in sight. Their manufacturing facility is all but closed and Engineering and Project Management capability in Calgary has been decimated to the point where it would be very difficult to perform if they won a large contract.
