Great entry point into the defence sector, but paperwork heavy - Engineer General Dynamics Electric Boat Employee Review

Nice work and life balance

Nothing bad to say so far

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

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.
