It's the defense industry - Software Engineer General Atomics Employee Review

Very good work life balance

9 hour shifts 4 days a week

Good working environment Exciting projects Great coworkers (for the most part, like any place)

Like any maturing company, it has become more and more top-heavy, placing more and more emphasis on project management and milestones, sometimes over bread-and-butter engineering. I could have half the PMs I have now and do a better job
