United States Navy Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"The United States Navy is generally a good environment. The pay is equal to the work that is accomplished. Considering that the military gives you a home, medical, dental, extra pay, and vacation time, the military is an easy life. The downside is favoritism, unrealistic advancement requirements, and misuse of funds."

"The Navy was a good career choice but it is not to everyone. Also with the recent lack of ability to recruit quality talent it continues to decline. Fairly soon it will likely have a major accident on a submarine. Likely credited to lack of quality material and personnel."

"This organization is meant for individuals who appreciate moving around in different locations every three to fours years. If you like to travel under below average living conditions during deployment, by all means have at it."

"Navy Reserve is a good opportunity for anyone who wants to be involved with the military, see the world or needs money for college."

"I have worked for the U.S. Navy from 2003 to 2009. It is a great experience and great for future endeavors."

"I've been in the Navy for 22 years. It has been an amazing, beneficial, and learning experience. There are some arduous duties, true, but it has been a worthwhile adventure."

"I joined the Navy in May 1994 and been given the privilege to visit places and the opportunity to work in a fast face environment while serving my Country. I am honored to be part of the Naval Medicine that delivers quality health services in support of Armed Forces, maintain medical readiness and advances medicine through education, training and research."

"Good overall experience. You get to do a lot of varied jobs."

"I have served in the Military for the past 20 years and have greatly enjoyed the experience."

"Great place to work but not enough incentives to have employees stay."

"I have had a great experience working for the Navy. I have traveled the world and gained a lot of experience and knowledge in my field of work. I am ready to bring my work experience and knowledge to another company and start a new career."

"I don't have much to say. I worked hard and completed my contract. I did make grade and moved up. I was given a lot of responsibility early. It just was not the right fit for me."

"As a Civilian DOD employee the only perks are the relative stability and benefits are good. First pay raise in 5 years was 25 cents. Management does not hire based on job performance and refuses to compensate employees for job tasks they are performing outside of their position description."

"I have worked for the Navy Yard for one year and I loved the work I did. I would recommend the position to anyone who wants to get a real look at all aspects of the IT industry. I was exposed to every facet of IT from networking to cyber security. Now I am looking to move on to the next career move as my contract for the Navy Yard has ended."
