slow to implement change; visibility into corporate was poor at best; professional experience really depended on which contract and location you were working on

Pros

Overall, GDIT has a reputable presence in the IT arena. The salary is on the high end of market yet the benefits are average. - 401(k) matching (fully vested on 1st day of employment) - The management team cares about the employees on a personal level.

Cons

- The medical benefits package is changing towards a HSA (healthcare savings account) model. - There is no overhead hence no job security. When your contract ends or lacks funding, it is up to you to find your next gig. You are hired for a contract...you are not hired into the company. - Contracts tend to be a collection of "warm bodies". The "warm bodies" approach coupled with the lack of tough technical screenings allows for a collection of mediocre developers. Consultants need not apply! - Education reimbursement and training is based upon the funds available for your project. - General leave is one broad category (vacation, sick days, family 'urgencies', etc). - The organizational chart is very bland and lacks diversity.

Pros

While a slim chance, it is possible to get picked up by the government agency that you are contracted to support.

Cons

Management uses fear and intimidation towards their employees. Inconsistent leadership.
