Pros

Great Benefits and growth opportunities, the company is well structured however, there are some positions and job descriptions that HII would not miss a beat if they did not exist. An example is. over 160 Manager 1and up in the engineering chart just in Pascagoula and New Orleans alone. The change document review board going over changes that other people all ready spent dozens of man hours etc.

Cons

None, as a company, HII is a great place to work. However, the decision making errors made from time to time by upper management could be consider a "con" For instance, I think that closing Avondale was a terrible decision from the on budget, schedule, quality and safety stand point of view. Closing Avondale maybe the wrong strategic move HII made. Hopefully they obtain the results expected from this decision.

Pros

Remote Work, Flex Schedule, Benefits are decent enough.

Cons

It is very much a boys club between management, leads, and HR. HR is there to protect the company, not you. The moment you have something crazy happen (and you will because most people in positions of power are old retired navy guys who cant even work a computer usually and would rather praddle on about "the good ole days") and you report it to HR, you immediately will be retaliated against, even when HR says you wont. Its tough to say how you wont when they immediately inform your supervisor. I also hate how they are an "inclusive" company, and yet I have been called more slurs and received more backlash for being LGBT when its not even being presented, I just want to log in, work, ask questions, log off.
