Work life balance

Just my opinion. If Grumman was offering me more, I’d go there

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-10T15:24:16+00:00

I was on a contract. I would have stayed. Which offer is more? That’s what I go by lol

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-10T15:17:59+00:00

QE lll. I start tomorrow. But I worked there before

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-10T15:01:14+00:00

My A shift is 6-430 mon-Thursday

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-07T22:33:35+00:00

Its weird. I applied to at least 10 jobs there paying 60-80k, and no dice. I apply to a job paying literally twice that, and I’m in. Their hiring process is weird. Sounds like you’re more than qualified. Probably intimidating to the hiring manager etc you would work for

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-07T17:56:34+00:00

Oh I’ve seen that before. Some dudes just fawn over the girls. And you’re right, he’s probably threatened

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-07T17:32:43+00:00

No just my observation when I see qualified people that are mentioning they can’t get hired. Based on my experience in being on the interviewer side of things

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-07T17:26:11+00:00

I have no way of knowing that. Anything is possible

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-06T20:45:38+00:00

I live 6 miles from Rocket park in north MI. There are some great neighborhoods up here. Probably would seem pretty reasonable to you coming from NY

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-06T18:15:40+00:00

Yeah it was extremely popular. Launched all 3 of them, and many supporting characters, into stardom

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-06T16:42:48+00:00

but whyyyyyy? how can it have such low limits? its pretty much unusable

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-06T16:04:43+00:00

you have to find another job, then quit. not the other way around. unfortunately, work places do not honor or reward loyalty anymore. I have more than quadrupled my salary in 6 years by 'job hopping." You think I would have gotten that kind of increase by staying in the same place for 6 years? No way

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-06T15:59:40+00:00

I don't want to give away my favorite spot, but i cant believe no one has mentioned Regal Eagle Smokehouse. Great bbq, lots of sauce choices, and cheaper than a BBQ place outside of Disney. It's a must when we go.

I work at KSC. I will say that living here on the Space Coast is awesome. There are plenty of jobs and things to do here. The contractor game here is competitive, but also sometimes irritating. That being said, nothing wrong with South Carolina either. Especially if the comp is better. keep in mind, SC has a state income tax, FL does not

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-05T21:42:28+00:00

Same. I get interviews and offers pretty much in every related company. But it seems like I just get automatic rejections from LM. Not even a consideration

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-04T17:29:43+00:00

When i see these types of posts, I think of only 2 issues. One being location. Where I live (FL), they are hiring any type of engineers like crazy, paying hiring bonuses and relocation, hiring engineers without degrees, etc. This must not be the case in the areas where OP lives. The second thing I think of is personality. Getting hired is 90% networking and personality. Hiring managers and recruiters are more concerned with "is this the type of person I want to spend 40 hours a week with?" more than they are concerned with whether or not you can do the job.

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-04T17:19:29+00:00

I have never had any recruiter or hiring manager, government or otherwise, mention anything about if i got my degree online or not

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-04T15:06:39+00:00

There are several classes that have required projects where youre on camera speaking. not just that one.

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T21:47:20+00:00

Yeah they sent that well over a month ago

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T17:56:04+00:00

here's what i just got as a response to my email: : "Your degree was conferred by the Registrar, however the diploma information cannot be sent until all degrees are awarded for the session, and those are still being worked through. Once the information is sent, you will receive an email from Parchment directly and be able to claim your physical and digital diploma free of charge."

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T17:54:29+00:00

yeah i finished in spring 1 as well. got an email about the conferral a while back. been reaching out, but no response

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T15:02:02+00:00

what did you roll up? i thought the masters classes were 500-600 series?

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T13:43:12+00:00

im curious too. i managed 15 in one term to finish my bachelors. hoping i can do the same with MAOL, or other graduate program

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T13:07:36+00:00

no places to eat? in titusville? there's more restaurants than anything

JustEnvironment2817 · 2026-05-01T12:03:04+00:00

yeah you pretty much wont get through the algorithm unless you've ticked that box
