Pros

Other peers who work hard to keep the power on.

Cons

After being hired in as a remote position, an announcement was made that all in Design are required to be on site full time weekly going forward. The claim is better cohesion between Operations. As always the lack accountability of protected bargaining employees is being placed on other departments. The company claims to promote work life balance but in reality has little to no regard for it. If you are currently considering a role with FirstEnergy, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere. It is clear decisions with little to no consideration of the employees are routinely made.

A nice thing about swing shift is that you get days off in the middle of the week and you can get a lot of vacation

Cons

The bad thing is your days off are sometimes used on training or forced overtime
