Pros

Pay is reasonable and can be a good place to start and gain experience if interested in the utility industry.

Cons

Designers are the default personnel to perform virtually every possible job function imaginable from addressing legal concerns, mapping and drafting, accounting audits, right-of-way acquisition, billing and invoicing, construction project management, customer service, file organizing, scheduling appointments, etc. all on top of your actual job which is already a lot. They have immense responsibilities and virtually no authority to correct any issues. Most only stay for a few years. Computer software is all antiquated and more often than not designers do not have the tools and training they need to do their jobs. Unbelievable level of stress.
