I finally got a new offer. What a relief. Wrong people in leading positions have brought GA into this situation. The worst part is that they are so convinced that they are doing a great job. Sometimes I get the feeling that they are totally detached... —  read more 

Our group's manager has not informed this to us. Is remote working only allowed at specific GA sites or for job titles like managers or HR types? With the cost of gas now and s my commute is overstressing my monthly budget. I would like to know more... —  read more 

GA is a great company to work for. Very relaxed environment and generous with deadlines. For how much one really works pay is great 👍…. With all these new contracts in the pipeline hiring looks to be going crazy again… good and bright days ahead!

Through d-mb luck, GA was in the right place at the right time for 9/11, because they had the only drone capable of carrying missiles. The company confused being the only game in town with being the “best”, and that early success went to their heads... —  read more 

Is if they transferred all GA HR staff and GA Managers to a far away remote site such as St Louis or Chicago. And don't give these people computers or cellphones so the only way the can communicate with GA people in Calif is through the US mail. ... —  read more 

Does anybody mind sharing what kind of severance they were offered as part of their layoff? I'm mostly wondering if some changes were made due to the pandemic or if it's still the usual. Also, were you offered extended medical coverage (an additional... —  read more 

but none of them are from Garbage Atomics! cause Geriatric Atomics suckssss have fun with your $0.99 contracts and 2% bonus. we will party with our $100M contract and 35% bonus! hahahahah

First of all, I am disappointed. Why is it getting harder and harder for GA to get contracts, even smaller ones? What is the reason?

Wow Linden finally caved in to the attrition rate and is allowing any positions that are capable of being worked remotely to be worked remotely. Will this increase retention or attract candidates to GA?

Anyone tracking new restructuring going in the high desert?

I've been thinking about the reasons why the company is losing contracts. Can the leadership do anything about it, and if so, does it actually intend to do something so that GA doesn't continue losing contracts?

A lot of people told me that they experienced cultural shock after they left here and went to another company. I guess after spending years in unhealthy work culture it takes a long time to get used to a culture that is significantly different... —  read more 

Not that many left our team lately, but unfortunately, the best ones have left already.

According to upper management, GA has a healthy back log, no retention issues, and a bright future. Do they reeeeally think their employees buy that?

NEW: @OMarkarova, Ukraine's ambassador to the United States, met last week with officials from @GeneralAtomics, maker of Reaper and Predator drones. General Atomics says it has unmanned strike aircraft ready to go if the U.S. government... —  read more 

Since I'm not expecting to get a response from someone who's regretted leaving here, I am just wondering about those who were lucky enough to leave here already - how much better pay and benefits did you get? I received an offer that includes a 20%... —  read more 

So far I have tried to have the best possible performance. After a colleague who had a great performance got laid off, I decided that I absolutely don’t want to bother anymore. What is the value of great performance here anyway?? The leadership... —  read more

Yes, I have been searching as well for months and yes, I have had half a dozen interviews so far and I'm yet to get one offer that's not insulting when it comes to the pay. I know my worth and I know it's clear to anybody who looks at my resume and... —  read more 

Several years ago, GA needed to attract skilled talent so they paid people more money to come over. In fact, that is what enticed me to take a job there. Over the years, I noticed that they were hiring many young people and although that is a good... —  read more

A source in ASI and GA saying that tomorrow they’re laying off more people.

I got an offer to work at GA and it was significantly below market. I advised why the offer was so low and. It on par and GA response was … “we never layoff and we factor that into the offer”. Then I came on here and see that layoffs did occur …. I... —  read more

I’m trying to leave GA… but I’m not sure where to apply to/go next? Who’s hiring right now? Serious responses only please.

Still not clear to me how to get promotion here? What is the way? Is this even possible trough hard work only?

If there is an ASI lay-off, then Linden to all of us. But it’s all speculation as of right now so I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

What will happen to GA over next 5 years, how will the company change?

Unfortunately, that time has passed. Now this is a completely different company and everyone's job here is very uncertain. This is hard to accept given that most of us felt very comfortable here. I guess that's one of the reasons why most people... —  read more 

Talent is leaving, they arent hiring qualified replacements, the most toxic people stay and get promoted. Now, they are losing money on contracts and not taking action to course correct, except more layoffs. There are a lot of cliche poor business... —  read more

Glad to know GA is keeping up with inflation for their annual wage hikes… not.

It's my own fault. For a while, I was constantly looking for a new job because it was clear to me that my job here was more than unstable. Then the situation improved a bit so I relaxed and stopped sending out applications. And now, again, rumors... —  read more 

As someone posted below, employees are expensive. Yes, salaries are not competitive as others, but the company still has to pay for your healthcare, benefits, and retirement. We do win contracts, but not enough in number or big enough in dollar... —  read more

Best thing folks can do is get out of GA as soon as possible. Salary and benefits have never been great. Staffing misrepresents the benefits and shakes their head about what they promised after people are hired. No intention to rectify. . Higher... —  read more 

I'm tired of having to constantly worry about layoffs or which benefit I'm going to lose next. I'm so tired of it that I've landed on the opposite side: now I'm hoping to be laid off so I can pick up severance (I've been here for a decade, it should... —  read more
