Pros

Benefits are fairly good, current supervisors are very supportive and understanding of personal life and make whatever it may be work out when emergencies happen. You have personal days/hours to call off when you want, vacations, and even volunteer hours where you get paid your full rate to volunteer.

Cons

Sick days are a little bit of a pain, a whole chart is for this but essentially starting off if you have one event that you have to use sick time, the next year the first one or two times you use sick time you wont get paid. However you have your personal time that you can use before this. Vacations are sometimes hard to use when you want. High turnover for first year employees as it is physically demanding at first until your body adjusts from walking constantly all day. Can be a little dangerous walking in yards mostly dogs you come across and rarely an aggressive customer, but it does happen.

Pros

FirstEnergy is a big company with a lot of growth that I've seen firsthand. Employees are helpful and all have the shared goals of keeping reliability of the electric grid. The pay is decent and stays competitive with the market rates as they do reviews consistently and evaluate. Its a great company that is trying to do better after misguided leads hip in the past

Cons

Some executive leadership vision is not shared with lower level employees. The recent transition from WFH back to the office has left employees such as myself wondering why its not role based WFH.
