Pros

Good people, rich history, customer and safety oriented

Cons

Need to be more upfront on policies at hiring. Nepotism alive and doing well.

Pros

Awesome entry level pay. You get benefits. There's opportunities for overtime and a lot of opportunities to move up the ladder.

Cons

The company does not put a lot of care, time, money, or effort into customer service. It's very black and white, so there's no room for caring about customer's needs. (Example: the company has the lowest customer satisfaction rate now than ever before, so the company has told the customer service supervisors to really crack down on keeping calls to 5 minutes or less, so now instead of us taking time to help the customers and obtain first call resolution, we are transferring them, cutting them off, and wrapping up the call without getting the problem solved the first time.)

Pros

None. Before National Grid bought the company, the original energy utility company was excellent to work for, with real leadership.

Cons

Senior leaders have absolutely no loyalty to long-term, high performing employees. They will fabricate reasons to end your employment.
