Pros

At times GD was a fun place to work, and had lots of smart people to look up to. They provide excellent benefits and were understanding during family crisis times.

Cons

Many folks are stuck in their ways. It seemed hard to get people to change, they seemed to believe that if it worked great ten years ago, it will work great ten years from now. Some times it felt like I was doing the same work over and over again. It seemed that the people who needed to be let go, would never be let go, they were just given different responsibilities.

Pros

GD has lots of interesting projects to work on across multiple locations. If you want to make a career at GD, I don't think you would be bored because there is so much to work on. Work has been very stable over decades with no indication that that will change. Work life balance is also valued and generally very good outside of major project milestone deliveries.

Cons

Pay is competitive with defense industry but not private sector.
