General Dynamics Information Technology FAQ

Pros

The company had great perks like giving employers laptops and workers were able to have personal time off.

Cons

Lay offs and turn around rate is too high. Employees are not as motivated to do the job they are assigned to do.

Advice to Management

Stop looking over employees shoulders and trust them more. Also please be sure to be more available when they need you doing tough situations.

Pros

Good benefits package, telecommute for many employees, salary is so-so

Cons

Poor leadership on most levels, bullies on multiple levels. A lot of the systems are really messed up/complicated due to all of the acquisitions/mergers and many people do not have access to the same information depending on which company they are hired under.

Pros

I love our facilities. They have great perks such as a cafe and free coffee

Cons

This is only at our headquarters

Pros

Plenty of opportunities great first job to gain large company experience depending on size of project, you can share the workload overall good benefits, nothing crazy special, but your basic 401k, health, dental, vision, tuition reimbursement, etc.

Cons

no career/mentorship program yet (pilot stages) if you prefer smaller companies, it's not for you plenty of resource but it depends who you know

Pros

The places you are contracted to work within the Federal government, but only for a few years because the benefits and promotion prospects are abysmal.

Cons

GDIT states that it is concerned about diversity and inclusion, but this is not matched by anything in their benefits structure: maternity/paternity leave, family leave, disability considerations, etc. They use a lot of bandwidth making statements that support this, but it amounts to nothing meaningful at employee level beyond emails in an inbox.

Advice to Management

If you want to attract and retain talent, improve compensation and benefits. However, I don't get the sense that management is concerned about the employee churn.
