Vantaggi
Pretty easy job to learn and complete. Very blue collar work for being in the realm of IT. Warren was an awesome supervisor and it was great working under him. Never had any issues going to appointments or calling in sick (if I was sick). Most of the job was layer 1 troubleshooting and doing various network infrastructure projects that came from leadership. It's pretty laid back when you aren't busy with tickets and projects so it's a good way to do some school work online. You sometimes terminate fiber, rj45 connectors, replace cables, media convertors, etc. Basically you are a cable dawg
Svantaggi
You don't get to CLI onto any switches or routers. Low compensation for requiring TS/SCI Getting access to the various badging systems can take a while. You are required to take a one hour lunch every day. Typical M-F 40hrs per week with no variation in the work hours. No overtime allowed. Onsite only and you are expected to drive your own car to the various different sites (with no mileage reimbursement!). No real movement to advance once you've learned every site. Opportunities for advancement with GDIT are very slim. Also, you get paid like 10-20k less than the SMS primary on the same contract...
