Sonar Technician

"I worked for the US Navy from 2004-2010 as a Sonar Technician. I thought it was a great job. There was lots of opportunity for advancement and taking on responsibilities that interest a given individual. The downsides were the stresses of military life such as living on a ship while underway, and standing watches in the middle of the night. Recommended for those who are in a position to advance their career quickly while giving up a few civilian comforts."

United States Navy Employee

in Ridgecrest, CA

"Slow to innovate. I came in with advanced degrees but was hired low. Expecting to advance with hard work and new ideas, I got nowhere. Nepotism is rampant, due to the remoteness of the base. The joke phrase, unauthorized productivity, is very accurate. Base facilities are minimal, e.g., I thought a Navy base would encourage swimming, but the pool hours kept shrinking, and the staff was obnoxious. Rather go to a facility or company that encourages innovation and collaboration."
