Pros

Initial salary better than most. Benefits were good Generous time off when you can get it

Cons

No interest in employee retention Management attitude is engineers are a replacable commodity Loses best employees to movement due to lack of market analysis. Hires and promotes due to ethnic background or sex not based on performance Very political environment. Management circles known as the wine and cheese club

Pros

GD offers flexible hours, a decent working environment, good people to work with, work that can be exciting and challenging, decent pay, etc.

Cons

GD keeps cutting benefits, laying off people, and asking those who remain to put in even more overtime. Our division started out as Motorola Government Electronics, and it was obvious that Motorola cared about its employees. There was 2-way loyalty between the company and its employees. GD took over and that remained a while. But now, it is obvious the company has little loyalty to its employees, because they keep cutting benefits. They say they're staying 'competitive', but the benefit cuts are never ending. I'm not feeling much loyalty from them towards me, and I know many others feel the same way. If you want a company that cares about building loyalty and doing good things for its loyal employees, GD isn't it. If you just want a company that gives you a paycheck, GD's pretty good for that.
