      Friendly environment but poor communication from management

      Systems modeling and simulation engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are helpful and friendly and the work is interesting.

      Cons

      Management does not communicate expectations clearly and projects are poorly defined. If you are a hard worker and a self-starter, you'll find plenty to do but you may feel your work is unappreciated or unnecessary as projects are poorly managed and often abandoned.

      Not A Fulfilling Job

      Test engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible Schedule You can certainly move up in this company, but that seems mostly due to attrition. Your advancement is a function of time, not ability. It does seem senior management is making efforts to increase the benefits of working here. I also think their response to COVID-19 has been very appropriate, often implementing changes well before they become requirements. Great job outlook as they have a monopoly on nuclear ship construction.

      Cons

      Poor management. I have up to eight people that act as a manager that often conflict with on another. One will direct a certain action, while another will interrupt that action and tell you to do something else that they claim has priority. They also fail to invest in new employees. They expect a high turnover and as such will not invest in you until you have been there for some time. In my year as an employee this is the sole reason my coworkers (five) have left the company. Expect to work weekends or second/third shift on short notice. Expect to go into seven day work weeks for 2-4 weeks at a time.
