"Worked at this company for a few years. Over that time I realized that in such a large company, without proper management, it's easy to become a number on a sheet of paper. Manager did not take care of personnel in the field and danced around any issues. While this is probably typical of any location, it was frustrating to start with proper leadership and then finish with just a number on a piece of paper."

"GDIT is a strong company with strong corporate business ethics and focus on customer retention. They are very strong in infrastructural support and service desk but weak in the enterprise applications area. Also, they are not very good in realizing and capitalizing on its employees' capabilities and potential."
