      Pros

      9/80 schedule and the benefits

      Cons

      The morale of the department is low. There is no sense of leadership and no career path. There is a high turnover rate and people are moving into better opportunity. There is also a lack of promotion and opportunity to grow.

      Pros

      I started there in the Photonics div and it was a blast. Later I worked on some very interesting high power government programs that were very interesting and challenging. The Engineering staff I worked with was top notch and I learned a lot. My salary was a good and I routinely saw good raises. Then with a change in divisions and management it all became toxic

      Cons

      I witnessed incompetent senior engineers that had others do most of the design and then take all the credit. Nepotism and other religious groups are alive and well there. When you have been there over 10 years you had better watch your back. They forced me out after having years of good reviews for no good reason other than I made to much. I am aware of others that are still there that are facing the exit door as well. GA does very little promotion from within.

      Been here for 3 years and I've yet to have any issues at this company

      Cons

      if you want to advance in the company, you have to look for it. They are improving on promoting advancement opportunities though.
