General Dynamics Electric Boat

Is this your company?

Extremely boring, with too many employees, not enough work to go around, and no room to be innovative. - Electrical Engineer I General Dynamics Electric Boat Employee Review

Pros

Excellent Health insurance. Probably some of the best in the country. Extremely stable industry and jobs. Nearly impossible to get fired. Lay-offs are few and far between.

Cons

It depends on which site you are working on. A new location in New London just opened which is much nicer. Overall, the worst partof working there was management's (nearly all of them) rigid adherence to tradition and what's been done before. Unfortunately this is a technology industry and what has been done before is no longer good enough, or even standard any more.

Pros

This is a last resort job if you can’t find anything else

Cons

The processes and systems in place to get the job done is dismal. There is no official training for the job role. If you make suggestions and try to be helpful you are seen as a threat by management. There is rarely any cross functional communication. It feels like they want things to take a long time and be wrong so that they can charge the govt. more money. (Bc every task you do will have a charge number). Most long timers at the company don’t care about the work being done inefficiently either, bc they have a reason for overtime. Very weird corporate politics / favoritism. (I have never seen it as bad as it is here). Parking is terrible at every location.
