Pros

A great company prior to the Northrop Grumman hostile take over. Find someone who has 15+ years of real experience shipbuilding experience on site as they are the only ones who know shipbuilding - watch out for Director and above Hirelings who know nothing. The best place to work is Human Resources as they have no metrics, are responsible for nothing and concentrate on their own bonuses.

Cons

The company is filled from the top to the bottom of Northrop Grumman employees and fire - eliminate real shipbuilders. The CEO has taken a massive increase of 47.5 % in pension fund while looking to cut lessor company employees.

Pros

Remote Work, Flex Schedule, Benefits are decent enough.

Cons

It is very much a boys club between management, leads, and HR. HR is there to protect the company, not you. The moment you have something crazy happen (and you will because most people in positions of power are old retired navy guys who cant even work a computer usually and would rather praddle on about "the good ole days") and you report it to HR, you immediately will be retaliated against, even when HR says you wont. Its tough to say how you wont when they immediately inform your supervisor. I also hate how they are an "inclusive" company, and yet I have been called more slurs and received more backlash for being LGBT when its not even being presented, I just want to log in, work, ask questions, log off.
