Pros

The pros are good benefits

Cons

Unfortunately I’ve had a very disappointing experience working at Electric Boat RI. I willingly left this facility knowing more than I should about how they operate. There is obvious favoritism, and management operates in a way that feels secretive rather than transparent. Employees are written up for just about anything, yet supervisors are smoking in the parking lot without consequences. a clear double standard. Overall, it creates an unfair environment where hard work doesn’t feel recognized and policies don’t seem to apply equally to everyone.

Pros

No experience needed and good pay

Cons

The company is very sketchy and values quantity over quality and actively pushes their inspectors to do a fast inspection over a good inspection. It’s very frustrating because what we do keeps people alive and they are pushing people to work in a way that leaves rejectable indications in joints and then they try to gas light you like it’s not happening when you can see it with your own two eyes out on the floor

Pros

EB is a decent place to start out your engineering career. The company is large and has areas to rotate to internally to grow your post undergraduate knowledge base.

Cons

This isnt a company worth staying at long term. During the 8 years i worked here the average engineers pay raise was around 2.8%. Each year the benefits package continued to decline in quality and offerings. Some departments even implement mandatory overtime, which often doesn't pay you extra until you exceed 5 hours over 40.
