(part of TSD) good benefits, future sounds promising, not so good at NNS
Pros
benefits are solid, being non exempt lets you rack up some overtime if necessary (it will become inevitable regardless when testing phases get intense) and working on the 2nd or 3rd shift gets a 7% or 10% pay increase depending on which TSD subcompany you are being hired with. There is a goal to be sent out to one of the DOE sites that TSD contracts with, which is an interesting prospect if you're not trying to settle down in one spot.
Cons
But until then you are basically a NNS test operations engineer. There is hardly anything engineering related about the job. almost no critical thinking required and no technical skills are really ever used. The job itself wouldn't be so bad if it was advertised as such. but definitely not what I was expecting. walking almost a mile if not more to your car to and from work definitely gets old fast. and thats with a decent parking spot. Oh and parking sucks if you haven't heard by now
