Pros

Fully vested in 401K immediately. Great education benefits. Many locations worldwide. Excellent starting point for someone new to the federal contractor environment.

Cons

Very little loyalty supervisors and managers. Education, especially MBA, is highly regarded. Promotions appear to random and career progression a popularity contest. Pay is based upon keeping as much in the company as possible rather than being performance based. There is a "whatever the client wants they get" attitude. Very little vacation benefits - 12 days to start and no sick days at all.

Pros

The company has your back; it shows how much it cares for its employees. Personnel moves are done in a way that makes sense, and they often put the right person in the right job and make changes quickly when necessary.

Cons

As contractors, you are bound to what the customer asks. And there is not much control over it, since you are contractually bound to support that customer. Even then, GDIT corporate makes sure to reach a good middle ground when changes are requested.

Pros

Good pay and flexible telecommute options

Cons

Extremely basic benefit offerings. There also seems to be a very wide chasm between GDIT internal (management/corporate) and front-line staff who are focused on the contract.
