Pros

They are working hard on diversifying the company and it shows. The people you work with really make the job. Management could use work and training but the company overall has come a long way.

Cons

This company is infamous for gate keeping positions for those close to management so my best advice to anyone would be to network network network.

Pros

I worked at the Plant McDonough combined cycle. It was a crash course in project management and had a lot of opportunities to get experience leading a variety of teams (capital projects, craft workers, operators, technical staff).

Cons

Stultifying bureaucracy that made it hard to get anything done. Hostile relations between management and union operations staff. Overwhelming workload. Very "old school" hierarchical management style that I did not care for. If you are more of a nuts and bolt engineer versus a project manager I do not recommend working here. The plant had large engineering needs but nothing about the internal systems or culture supported going after them. They wanted us checking Gantt charts, hounding suppliers. and managing our budgets.
