Pros

Competitive compensation and opportunities for advancement. Because Con Ed is a monopoly (for all intents and purposes) if you are even marginally competent, you will have a job for as long as you wish!

Cons

Life at Con Ed is a double-edged sword; you will have no problem staying employed and fairly well compensated, but if you are looking for a dynamic environment where new ideas are embraced, you might want to look elsewhere

Pros

Strong learning environment with supportive team members and clear guidance from mentors. Great exposure to real-world supply chain and sustainability projects.

Cons

Limited ownership in some projects due to internship scope, but still a valuable learning experience overall.

Pros

- wfh - equipment provided - 2 raises a year

Cons

- very cliquey - OT is only 2 additional hours a day. nothing more - management prioritizes metrics over employees’ wellbeing - zero downtime in between calls. constantly back to back from beginning to end of shift - other depts do not hold their weight, which results in CSR’s having to do twice the work. can/will lead to burnout - union uwua local 1-2 does not advocate for members like they should. they are very cozy with con ed management. will be lackadaisical with member requests
