Pros

POWER Engineers offers an exceptional work environment, which I found highly rewarding during my tenure. My decision to leave was driven solely by a shift in my career interests away from electrical power engineering. The Hilo office is staffed with incredibly skilled and experienced senior engineers, whose mentorship I greatly valued. Their expertise significantly enhanced my professional growth and overall experience at the company.

Cons

I observed a recurring challenge with budget constraints throughout my engagement in various projects. Many projects tended to exceed their financial limits or were allocated minimal budgets to begin with. This situation often presents difficulties for new engineers, especially given the company's strong focus on maintaining budget discipline.

Pros

Was a genuinely great place to work. Great people and great culture. It was worth the slightly-lower-than-average pay because work life balance and benefits were great. I enjoyed going to work every day.

Cons

Poor financial decisions from upper management regarding the shareholder program led to the company's demise. Upper management sold out to WSP. Management made millions while long time employees got zilch. As someone else had mentioned, retention bonuses were unfairly distributed. Most people didn't get any retention bonus even if they had been long time employees of the company. It really felt like everyone who wasn't upper management got stabbed in the back. They got their payout then dumped the company. Still stings to this day.
