Not a great place to work
Associate Engineer (Current Employee), Niskayuna, NY –
Pros: short schedule
Cons: lack of job security for new hires
They don't keep people after 6 month trial periods. Awful onboarding process and people there seem miserable

Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory (KAPL) is a good company to work for.
Network Engineer (Current Employee), Schenectady, New York –
Pros: stability, high values
Cons: reduced benefit coverage
KAPL is currently owned by Bechtel supporting Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program operated by Department of Energy. The company is very proud to serve the country, and we strive to keep the high standards for the government. Many employees are proud to be part of this and are very proud of their work.

Good technical work
Mechanical Engineer (Current Employee), Niskayuna, NY –
The technical work at KAPL can be very good, but sometimes the procedures and processes get in the way. The best benefit at KAPL is the 9/80 work schedule where you work 9 hour days and get every other Friday off. It has been great for quick weekend trips or for projects around the house.
