Pros

The longtime emps. that made, "G.A," what it is. The proudness you feel to be a part of something big for our country. Great benefits. continually growing field for future. encouragement to learn skills in other departments.

Cons

within the last year,many supervisor hires with very little knowledge of there job and or common sense. Drone-like emps. (flocks of sheep). Hired for quantity not quality work in an, R & D, location where creativity and ideas are what started the co. not very ISO compliant any more. Facilities, so behind in many unfinished jobs due to recent new supervisors ill lack of organization, priorities, and care for all fellow emps. and co.

Pros

Knowledgeable engineers and technicians, great learning opportunities, good training

Cons

Not so much of a CON, but you get thrown into the fire as soon as you're hired. Very fast paced.

Pros

9/80 work schedule. Benefits are decent. One of the few comapnies that offer a pension in addition to 401k.

Cons

Too many management layers. Promotions seem to be based on who you know, and if you fit into the right "clique". Some promotions are being given to managers with no experience in the function. Executuve leadership appears out of touch with their employees. Example - Chaotic games have been played the last 3 years with remote and hybrid work policies.
