Not A Great Company

Recommend

Pros

- It is easy to get a clearance and a head start in DoW work. - Benefits are not too shaby, and you get good coverage. - Got pretty good support from team and product quality was high. - Excellent work-life balance although it isn't too common within the rest of the departments.

Cons

- Very low pay. - If you work in Newport News it is not a great location to live in. - Management is cool for the most part unless you get on their bad side. - Layoffs are frequent and at this current moment in time there is a lack of work. - Not a lot of real growth opportunities as I was ghosted from a hiring manager for an internal transfer which is pretty ridiculous. - HR only favors management and will not help in any situation.
