Eversource has a climate of nepotism/partisanship for those connected to higher management. For those that get the job on their own merit, it is an uphill battle. I was expected to work 60+ hours per week under enormous pressure and someone else always got credit for the work. Unless you fall into the Eversource clique, you will be left to "sink or swim" for your first few years at the company. If you last you may have a shot, however, if you do not fit into the right Eversource upper management clique you will be the first casualty when they want to bring someone else in to the do the job. This clique is also a boys club, so unless you are a 28-70 year old white male that belongs to a country club or has a house on Cape Cod it will be hard to break through.
