Pros

Good Pay, great group of people to work with

Cons

No consistent in Management, Good old boy system no room for growth if you are a minority. Every manager has their own rules and favorites. If you are not a favorite or a golden child then your life is hell at ga power. To many cover ups and to many incidents not being handled properly.

Too many organizational changes; too corporate of an environment; I felt there was not much chance for upward mobility

Pros

great benefits, health insurance, etc.

Cons

I was there when the nation & state's economy was at it's worse and the company was cutting back and making many organizational changes from within the company. GA Power was not hiring many new outside employees, besides engineers, and were giving promotions to people that had been with company for a long time. New employees were not given those same chances when I was there.
