Pros

As an intern you are able to work on projects within the first few days. The flexible work hours are great. There are alot of people who have worked at the shipyard for 20+ years and can pass down there knowledge and experience. The supervisors are willing to let you expand your learning knowledge and skills by forcing you to attend software classes and special engineering workshops.

Cons

Parking isn't great if you work close to the waterfront. Lunchtime is only 30 mins long. If you work in buildings away from the waterfront, you will barely get to see the ships.

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.
