      Good place to work if you're lazy... - Submarine Officer US Navy Employee Review

      Pros

      Pay & Benefits Nuclear background sets you up for success (if you want to continue to work in the nuclear power field)

      Cons

      If you're a hard worker, you will be abused, especially if you're competent. Nothing is more frustrating than having someone's work assigned to YOU because THEY couldn't get it done. What does hard work get you? More work... Recognition for achievements is SEVERELY lacking. Promotions are based on time in service, not on performance. I call it "Leadership by Attrition". I wouldn't do it again...

      Pros

      It is what you make out of it. You'll have good days and bad days. It's all dependent on your leadership. That can make or break the command. Medical is free, but can take a while to get seen. You'll meet a lot of new people and could travel around the world depending on your duty station. Education benefits and training.

      Cons

      Medical can take a while to get seen, unless it's an emergency. If you're single, the pay isn't that great, but you don't have to much to worry about for bills if you live on base. If you're on sea duty billet, your work life balance will be terrible.
