      Reasonably Good with some Caviats - Advanced Systems Engineer General Dynamics Mission Systems Employee Review

      Pros

      I worked on a pretty great team, with a lot of smart people. Work can be very rewarding and exciting. Salary is reasonable dependent on location. (Pro for low COL areas)

      Cons

      My department had a lot of "routine" technical manager rotations. SMEs and highly regarded individual contributors overworked. Salary is not reasonable dependent on location. (Bad pay for Metropolitan areas) Management can be inflexible and uncaring. Refuse to allow movements to other teams when requested. Often left in the dark until day of or day before of upcoming tasking. Satellite offices often are one-program shops. If the program dies, so does the office.

      Pros

      GD-MS seems to win *ALOT* of proposals and contracts. There is always the next big thing at GD-MS.

      Cons

      Contractors 411: Typically, contracts terminated with no notice. Today will be your last day. Please wrap up your work. It was a very low-rate contract too. Made alot of sacrifices to be on this program. Culture resembled a human wood-chipper ala FARGO. Many senior engineers leaving en-mass. I was asked to take over the role of the engineer who left just prior to my arrival. I called it: I will be next. Good experience once in your life to go thru the human wood-chipper. Toughens you up. However, GD-MS is a great example of how it is that legacy aerospace companies are dying rapidly and startups will be the future in aerospace.
