Pros

-Relatively stable job -A lot of really nice people

Cons

Management is poor. Most managers are engineers with no real training other than what they see on their daily interactions with the Navy. Thus yelling and public humiliation are key tools they use. I've been recognized as one of the best engineers they've ever had. I think their system is a broken as it gets. Work life balance is pretty bad too
