In our segment of the organization there is no leadership of management. One of our leaders provided some insight the other day when he forwarded a message to his team Titled Inspiration “Decide what you want. Write it down. Make a plan. Work on... — read more

30 Layoffs in last 3 years
GA has filed for 30 WARN act declarations in the last 3 years…. Anyone think more or less the next 3 years? https://www.warntracker.com/company/general-atomics
Canada contract = $2.1B
Will the latest $2.1B contract with Canada to deliver 11 MQ-9 Reapers be enough to keep GA-ASI afloat and avoid future layoffs?
Life has improved so much since I left GA
I highly recommend it. The grass is much, much greener on the outside.
I had a phone interview with a General Atomics hiring manager two weeks ago. I thought the interview went good
Last Friday a General Atomics Human Resource women called but I was too busy to answer. The HR women left a message on my sail phone asking me to call her Monday morning. Is that a good sign that the HR women called and left me a message to call her... — read more

Does GA monitor WFH?
My coworker who WFH is away from their computer for hours every day. 3-4 hours most days. Don't ever see them working past their end of day time. Always has a reason why late with work. Been going on a long time. Doubt anyone at GA monitoring WFH... — read more
Too good to be true
I heard a rumor from someone that went to an HR Q&A session that in an effort to copy the UK’s work environment and increase productivity here, GA might go to a 32-hour work week with every Friday off and only 8-hour work days while still keeping the... — read more
Food for thought
If GA is so poor and cannot afford to pay workers COLA in America’s most expensive city, let workers WFH and move to affordable areas. Most people would take a salary reduction to WFH permanently!
Looking at 2024
Heard that medical costs for employees are going up a lot for 2024. Sure things are more expensive, but the owners pay less of the bill each year. Not sure why a multi billionaire needs to squeeze the worker bees to save. Not like there are... — read more

Full time back to office?
Rumor is hybrid is being taken away …
Layoffs rumors going around again
Confidential meeting occurring again…. Missing revenue targets…. Even with high turnover are more layoffs in the near future? Any news?
GA switches retirement company from Vanguard to Empower
Does anyone know why? Is this a cost cutting initiative?
GA-EMS people—Scott Forney has no idea what he’s doing.
GA-EMS has no direction and is hemorrhaging money, and the issue starts at the top. I’m not sure how GA-EMS has not been absorbed by another company yet, but it feels like it has to happen at some point.
Merger coming??
Rumor has it that GA is postering for a merger with another large defense company. Thoughts??
We need to focus on what we're good at
GA promised no layoffs. GA promised the future was bright and hired a bunch of people in 2019 to handle the massive orders of 2020 - all orders were cancelled and massive layoffs followed. GA has never been a leading edge defense company and has... — read more
GA Sucks
I am truly working with the d-mbest and laziest people I have ever worked with in my life! It’s hard to believe this company is still in business
Work Life Balance still good post layoff
Love the work life balance here at GA even after the layoff. Really proud of working here! Hence, why I give them 5 star reviews on Glassdoor and encourage my coworkers to do the same! :)
Overtime and Overly Tired
Anyone else being slammed with an unmanageable work level post layoff? The comments I am hearing from management are basically to suck it up, we’re not getting any help, and work over time… Who has much incentive to stay, especially when you see... — read more

General Atomics is the future of defense technology
Move over Lockheed, Boeing, Raytheon, etc. General Atomics is a forward thinking company that will surpass all others down the line. I am sooooo proud to be part of this journey to aerospace dominance and superiority.

Lots of Work at GA
Don’t listen to the naysayers on here. GA has a solid backlog, in particular from FMS customers. They will be fine for years to come. GA is a great place to work at.
Where does GA find the people to lay off?
The company seems to be hemorrhaging employees anyways. Where the he-l are they finding people to get rid of it a time win all the employees who are left are getting overworked and overstressed?
I Love it at GA :)
It’s great. I’ve had a good time since I started working here. I want to be here for as long as possible.
GA is Great!
I’m proud to work here.
