Consolidated Nuclear Security

I recently applied for a position with this company and was extremely disappointed by the overall attitude and lack of professionalism. From the start, the process felt disorganized and careless, and communication was either absent or unhelpful. It became clear that the team running things doesn’t take candidates seriously, and the hiring experience reflected that disrespect for other people’s time and effort. Beyond the dismissive behavior, there seemed to be a pattern of people taking credit and benefits without doing corresponding work, creating an environment that feels more like freeloading than leadership. Candidates go in expecting basic respect and fair consideration, but instead get excuses and silence. If this company wants to attract strong talent, it needs to improve how it treats applicants, handle roles responsibly, and create a culture that rewards effort rather than mooching.

Overall culture is not good. People make things harder than they need to be with red tape. Extreme nepotism--entire families work there, and get promoted for reasons no one understands. Clueless supervisors in some cases. Lots of people retired-in-place, which limits the ability to be promoted. A lot of work is not much more than busy work. People are thrown under the bus my management if that is what it takes to protect themselves. 

There are pockets of sanity, and if one can find on then go for it. If in the interview the interview team seams not to know what you are being interviewed for, there is no relation between the ad and the interview, etc., or the supervisors have no real knowledge of what they are supervising, then run.

This job is best as career for 20s-30-somethings; very challenging on an aging body. Although you must pass bi-yearly physicals, endurance tests, weapons qualifications, random drug screens, and be able to obtain and hold a security clearance, the day-to-day job is relatively easy. Lots of down time in most positions, in which you must learn a productive way to pass the time. Working outside in the weather can be challenging, as can carrying the required equipment, which can weigh up to 65 lbs. You learn ways of managing it all; everyone develops their own system that works best for them. It can be challenging to maintain alertness on the job.

Used to be a great place to work before this company took over. To many managers and not enough skilled labor, That was how they secured there contract to begin with. Promised the world to there customer, let a bunch skilled workers go with many years of experience and there replacements where poorly compensated if they were replaced all. Hard to get anything done in certain areas because there is not enough people in key positions.

CNS is an okay company. You are really more a number than a person and with if you are not in the Union, be prepared to be used and abused with absolutely no promise of compensation or promotion. High School grads with no degree are making 30k more than engineers to do a job that requires no thinking or true hard work.
