Pros

Very inclusive, kind, and caring employees. This resonates in all conferences, events, presentations, and tasks. I'm serious. Some of the Managers, Business folks, Engineers, Architects, Event coordinators, etc. are all some of the the kindest people a lot of my team have ever met.

Cons

GDIT tries to amass as many contracts first. Then, they staff very slowly = A full team with several still untrained individuals towards the end of the delivery deadline... Engineers are tasked with several different contracts. This contributes to the culture of "I'm cooler than you because I am working out of pocket (overtime with no extra pay) more often". Awful practice of sharing of salary and raise details within management that leads to comments to the individual and team, affecting morale. How on earth is this a good idea? HR comes off very strongly about rates that are less than market value.

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.
