Pros

EB has provided me a career in my field. I have moved up in the company over my long career of 30 years.

Cons

The pay, I feel is not up to National Standards. The new PTO policy is to attract younger professionals but is not attractive to employees who have been around a while like myself.

Pros

Good place to start. Decent work/life balance. Steady, secure paycheck.

Cons

I once read a comment a long time ago on this site saying something along the lines of "Electric Boat is a dinosaur waiting for a comet to change it". I feel like that was a good description of what it feels like working here.

Pros

Job security and interesting work

Cons

Benefits, especially over the last couple of years have really eroded. If you are a younger employee, there is no incentive to stay - benefits are no better than most other places. And the "older", more seasoned employees have taken the biggest hit - sick time has been dramatically reduced and has cut into what was once vacation time. Medical deductibles are ridiculously high ($350 last year for single to $2000 this year). The parking issues are terrible and no one does anything about it and raise percentages have consistently gone down. Employees are also expected to work a minimum of five hours of free overtime.
