Pros

They paid well, it provided relevant job experience as an aspiring IT professional. Reasonable demands from managers as far as workload went.

Cons

The building felt too large and cold. Many of the individuals working there were not very friendly or outgoing types. I suppose that probably has a lot to do with living in Pittsfield for an extended period.

Pros

A perfect example for work-life balance. The company went through great lengths to keep the employees happy and satisfied. Lunch-time and after-work soccer, softball, hockey.

Cons

Communication between middle-level management and employees was non-existent, at least on the projects I worked on. Upper-level management did not communicate with the workers on the ground and were constantly lied to by their underlings. If someone spoke their mind, they got their hand slapped.

Pros

Working at General Dynamics provides great financial stability. It is a very dependable environment and I have known far more people that move to a different position within the company instead of being laid off.

Cons

The organization is so large that many beaureaucratic elements have crept in. For example, ordering hardware or software requisite for projects is a nightmare because of the contracts with third-party companies who manage these orders, require a huge overhead, and complicates what should be a streamlined process.
