Pros

I worked with some of the smartest people in the industry at the director and solution architect levels. There are/were people there who are leagues ahead of others I have worked within the industry.

Cons

GDIT’s biggest enemy is itself as I saw opportunities get squandered or plain missed due to poor VP level management. Leaders are supposed to simplify things and knock down barriers. GDIT has VPs who erect barriers. The GDIT acquisition of CSRA left my group with a VP who lacked the industry experience, life experience, technical chops, the intellect, and maturity for the role. Even worse this VP is an idea thief. It became increasingly hard to support the company after being saddled with such a poorly thought out VP promotion. Even harder was taking the next level of VPs seriously as people or professionals. I guess this person wasn't a threat to the VPs above them. Corporate IT infrastructure is particularly challenging. Network outages at corporate HQ aren’t uncommon. Random Password lockouts are also a thing.

Pros

It's a big name ... but just another public firm that is morally vacuous and arguably rises to a level of fraud against gov't contracts.

Cons

From start to finish. You either surrender your own moral core and work-life balance and fall in line, or you leave. From their petty bifurcation of PTO so they don't have to be financially responsible to time off you've earned, to a 2-year cliff on 401K, the to "full flex" workweek which simply affords them the opportunity to make you work 60+ hrs on average ... the message is consistent. There is zero value in the worker, you are simply replaceable cattle.

Pros

Great company that has decent benefits, especially if you are working on one of their owned sites. Fairly Competitive Pay.

Cons

If you are a contractor working at other locations you miss out on a lot of benefits like catered lunches, workshops, bonus health benefits like in house massages, etc.
