Pros

-Diverse workdays. Some days in the office, some days on the ship, some days in the shops -Work on submarines, aircraft carriers, and destroyers -You learn so much and can work in so many fields

Cons

-Some workspaces are old and can be run down at the shipyards. Might not be suitable for everyone but it toughens you up

One of the reasons so many candidates turn into employees is the ability to learn, grow and build a career at HII. It's not always easy. The work can be hard. But like you, our best people are those who take pride and satisfaction for a job well done each day.

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.
