Pros

AEP values its engineers which is good to see. The company is undertaking a lot of change right now utilizing new 'smart grid' technology and big data analytics and it is an exciting time to work at a utility.

Cons

Technology is changing quickly but staffing changes follow too slow behind the additional and changing workloads. It tends to be after employee's are too overloaded before additional staffing is considered instead of anticipating these needs.
