Oak Ridge National Laboratory Reviews

What is it like working at Oak Ridge National Laboratory?

Awesome Work, Terrible Leadership.
Research and Development Engineer in Knoxville:
Pros: The work is truly meaningful and is constantly changing. The variety keeps things interesting year after year.
Cons: The leadership team cares nothing about the consequences and impacts of their decisions. Morale is terrible. New hires last 3 to 5 years and quit. Those that can retire do as soon as possible. The leadership team's decisions and internal propaganda to re-spin their bad decisions are so out of touch and disconnected they only server to further establish that the regular staff mean nothing. They fact that they have to release propaganda directed at the staff speaks volumes. But their actions show that their words mean nothing.
It is a very nice place to work, most of the time.
Software Developer in Knoxville:
Pros: I get to do interesting work, have a boss that cares, and we get to help make the world a safer place.
Cons: Dealing with customers that cannot make up their mind and dealing with some employees of sub-contractors.
