Pros

Occasionally they serve ice cream in the parking lot. Pay is deposited reliably every two weeks. I can't think of anything else.

Cons

Management focused only on company politics, looking good to superiors, and the balance sheet. Little to no attention to product quality, service to customers, or employee welfare & morale. No informal contact with employees except at the very lowest levels of management. Management is frequently unethical.

Pros

GD-MS seems to win *ALOT* of proposals and contracts. There is always the next big thing at GD-MS.

Cons

Contractors 411: Typically, contracts terminated with no notice. Today will be your last day. Please wrap up your work. It was a very low-rate contract too. Made alot of sacrifices to be on this program. Culture resembled a human wood-chipper ala FARGO. Many senior engineers leaving en-mass. I was asked to take over the role of the engineer who left just prior to my arrival. I called it: I will be next. Good experience once in your life to go thru the human wood-chipper. Toughens you up. However, GD-MS is a great example of how it is that legacy aerospace companies are dying rapidly and startups will be the future in aerospace.
