Pros

So far the people are fantastic. The environment is very positive. The facilities are very well maintained. I am very happy to have been selected to join the team.

Cons

It is very hard to say something about a $50+ job. So far the people we have met are fantastic; we assume there are a few unhappy people we are being sheltered from.

Pros

Benefits are very competitive and tend to be better than what you will find at other large electric utilities. Company leadership is forward-thinking and creative when examining ways to strengthen and grow company. Company has clear desire to retain current good employees by making ample internal opportunities available. The company commitment to Individual development is head and shoulders above what I have seen elsewhere.

Cons

At times, the workload can be significant. This is to be expected in a dynamic business environment, but employees should understand this coming in so that a false sense of work/life balance (40 hour weeks every week) is not created. The work needs to be completed to support the business and employees are compensated accordingly.
