      Pros

      I love the flexibility of National Grids hybrid work model especially given the geographic size of my service area. I appreciate the emphasis the company places on wellbeing and employee collaboration that embraces technology.

      Cons

      Development of division or departmental budget could be more transparent. Use of technology for collaboration is great, but with such diverse teams across the US and UK, there could be more emphasis on targeted in person team building across the company. There is a disconnect between operations employees and management employees.
