Pros

Good work-life balance, great people, solid pay & benefits. Midlevel mgmt is very accommodating and advocates for those whom they manage. Many opportunities to connect with our stakeholders and support our communities.

Cons

High Turnover, seems to have led to much higher starting salaries for new employees to incentivize and retain. Being more qualified with more relevant experience, while getting paid substantially less than new hires, had led me to begin to look for opportunities elsewhere. Storm duty is a completely ridiculous concept, sending office employees into potentially dangerous situations while falling behind in their actual job has no merit other than a way for the company to save a penny by using salaried employees. Lack of collaboration between business groups. Upper mgmt out of touch, not readily embracing the modern workplace (flexibility to work from home), and setting unreasonable expectations to drop everything for storm duty.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Normal vacation. Interesting job, meaning it’ll keep you mind sharp.

Cons

There are no goals or expectations set that allows you to prove you’re ready for growth. The only way to advance your career is to be one of the cool guys OR work 16 hours a day and weekends. Bonuses and merit increase is the same across the board no matter how much extra you do. The work force is too small for customer/management and the expectations are set too high. There are not enough vehicles for the work force and often times trainees have no way of getting to the job site. We would run out of stock items (cable,wire,connections,transformer,safety gear) that are necessary to keep the power on. Our best coworkers have left for biggest competitor…me too.
