BWX Technologies reviews

horrible insurance...bad vacation...and very poor management and organization.

Everything moves so slowly here. Raises are pretty small, and if you're a top performer you might get 0.3% more than the worst person in your group, so there's no real motivation amongst the workers to exceed expectations. Each career level has a path of growth/promotions, but there aren't enough promotions to go around each year to ensure you stay on track. If you get a manager who is more concerned about looking good to his/her bosses than speaking up for his/her high-performing employees, your group will be lucky to get one promotion each year to spread between anywhere from like 6 to 15 people. Non-engineer salary employees are treated as second-class citizens pay-wise, regardless of role. Many managers basically play musical chairs here, constantly changing roles as they seek to fill out their QC/Ops/Engineering bingo card in order to get to the next level of management. This leads to a lot of managerial incompetence as well as inexperience.
