General Dynamics Mission Systems reviews

Everything about General Dynamics Mission Systems except what was listed above is either average or poor. The company is extremely generic and lacks character, as well as having too many managers and people who are spread too thin. Priorities are often out of sync with what should be done and legacy systems, tools, and software are everywhere. The company is stuck with processes and technology that is 5-15 years old depending on the program. The cafeteria is awful and expensive. The work environment is a dull cube farm. Everything is very company-centric and not employee-centric at all.

Obviously with some 13,000 people it is easy to feel lost in the organization. The on-boarding process needs some work but there are already teams assigned to improving that and developing a mentoring program. There are tons of employee resources available, almost too many to sort through. From education assistance to classes and certifications. Sorting your way through all of that can be difficult. Doing the basics of your role will not get you promoted. Do I see this as a con? No. Go above and beyond if you want to move up.
