Pros

Generally take good care of their people, decent benefits, interesting work for a good cause.

Cons

At the moment the defense industry is in difficulty overall as the market has shrunk and become extremely competitive. GD has taken a traditional approach and slashed overhead support which is OK in the short term but the long terms effects will be felt. There is no clear strategy to get out of this that employees understand right now.

Pros

Good work life balance Projects matter for our war fighters Most co-workers are competent and dedicated More work than people, and moving to other engineering jobs is possible

Cons

Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions. A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos. The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
