Pros

For salaried employers there is tremendous flexibility within the company to move around and try new positions. There is plenty of work and right now the opportunties are very good. The company is very good at delivering submarines which is a difficult feat each time. The top leaders demonstrate the highest levels of integrity and passion.

Cons

The amount of rigor and documentation that goes into designing and building submarines makes the job monotonous at times. At times the company leadership stuggles to forecast and get ahead of the problems of tomorrow and sometimes today.

Pros

If you're under 30, the pay can be pretty decent starting out. Pay and benefits start when you start training. If you like downtime, there's plenty.

Cons

The leadership is incredibly dysfunctional and everything is behind schedule. The environment is literally toxic and you will not get a respirator, just an N95 mask. Management is understaffed and unsupported. There's a lack of seasoned experienced employees, which means the young people coming in aren't being trained or mentored properly. You might have a 19 year old kid doing stupid and dangerous stuff right next to you and there's no supervision. Sick and vacation time is so small that running out of hours is the #1 way to get fired.
