Just say no - Nuclear Engineer Naval Sea Systems Command Employee Review

Pros

Close to Olympic National Park and Rainier National Park Easy work

Cons

PSNS's definition of engineering is not engineering. There is no design work. All I did was write technical documents. I never performed any calculations or used engineering skills. If you can type in Word, you can perform the basic duties of this job. Bremerton, WA is incredibly unpleasant to live in. You get the rachetness of the Seattle-homeless mixed with the 'Merica culture of the military. It rains, a lot and the infrastructure is crumbling. Don't expect sidewalks, bike lanes, or a logically structured grid. Basically, the work is boring and the town is unpleasant. There is no reason to work here. Look elsewhere in your job hunt.
