Pros
GD is a solid company with a great history, great reputation and incredible stability given the current and recent downturns in the employment market. The diversity of products and services almost ensure that the company can not only survive but prosper through changes in goverment leadership, spending and economic downturns.
Cons
Certain aspects of the company can be considered conservative while others are highly innovative and cutting-edge. There is still a large ex-military population of employees which serves the culture both positively and negatively. Overall, not many downsides that wouldn't be seen in other companies just in different ways.
