Pros

The pay is consistent and decent. The benefits package is okay and the 401k selections are sensible. You may be lucky enough to be a manager or part of a good team.

Cons

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.

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).
