Pros

Direct management and coworkers were all wonderful. Great flexibility for work schedules and great benefits

Cons

Senior leaders are out of touch and have no real understanding of project requirements or needs, contract bidding is a mess and most all funding goes to bonuses of senior leaders. Staffing is always at bare minimum, max raises are laughable. Also upsetting how they handled layoffs. They had us all sign a 30 layoff notice but told us we would be rehired when the next contract started and it was only procedural. This was a huge lie and upsetting because we could have actually used this time to start looking for new employment. This really affected our families and also the reputation of GDIT.

Terrible benefits, Compensation, and Overall package

Pros

Slow pace of work, flexible hours, job security.

Cons

Terrible, terrible benefits. Insurance is expensive in covers close to nothing until you hit the deductible which is incredibly high, or pay an insane amount to have the premium insurance. Parental leave is atrocious and borderline unethical. PTO is fairly limited unless you essentially pay to take two weeks time off unpaid. Upward mobility is extremely limited, salaries are fairly low and raises are minimal and there are absolutely no bonuses. Management actively says that they hear we are upset about things and chooses to ignore them because they claim that their benefits package is comparable in the market.

Pros

Health care is one of the best with a $600/$1200 contribution to your HSA if you're one one of the top 2 plans. Has a small contractor feel at times even though it's one of the bigger ones out there. I've worked with some really bright people and learned a lot from them.

Cons

Pay ranges from Average to Poor depending on which contract you're assigned to. It feels like upper management is more concerned with padding their bottom line rather than doing right by their employees. Had situations where the client site was closed for whatever reason and GDIT made it's employees eat PTO to not lose pay. That's a situation that should never happen. Especially when PTO is middle of the road at best for offerings. Leadership was afraid to take a stand against the client when they blindly changed processes making it harder to get and retain talent. We saw a 60% reduction in our team after the change.
