Pros

Good opportunity to gain insight into utility and energy sector. Calling from SCE ensures returned calls.

Cons

I had very little support for managing my team. Of 12 employees on my team, 2 were known problems across management. I was not only unable to terminate these employees, I was regularly subject to questioning by HR for baseless complaints by those employees. Upper management treated me as an unsuccessful manager based on their negative reviews despite glowing reviews by the other 10 members of my team and support from my immediate manager.

Pros

Pay, they pay very well. Interesting work and SOME very sharp people.

Cons

The department I was in was very toxic. Company claims to be values based but that is a joke. The "leaders" in my OU were abusive and have been reported to HR multiple times by many people. Nothing was ever done. The entire company isn't toxic, its too bad that some of the areas are.
