      Pros

      They have a large contracts with many telco providers

      Because of the large contract they hold with Telco providers they take advantage of the slow market and severly underpay skilled workers.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very informal work environment - rather "Google" like. The company seems to have collected a large amount of past achievements in the power industry.

      Cons

      Very poor compensation - I was told at my interview that this would become "a wash" with overtime - never happened. The company is trying to figure out its future direction as they are losing a lot of bids. Since the corporate model is one of many satellite offices, there is poor communication among layers of management.

      Humiliating, completely unappreciative, very unprofessional, poorly organized, and cruel.

      Project engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Personnel located in offices throughout the U.S. are assigned to teams based on their expertise and drawings developed in multiple offices coordinated through the Project Manager. This is the modern way to run this type of business - but requires very strong QA/QC to maintain client satisfaction with the work quality.

      Cons

      Below industry standard salaries in most locations due to basing on Boise, ID cost of living for cities across the U.S. and mediocre benefits. Although there are many inexperienced personnel in the company there is a lack of a strong training program. Project deadlines result in people being trained "on the job" at the expense of budgets due to the associated re-work costs. High pressure work to maintain schedule and budgets. Budgets and cost do not reflect actual costs to the company resulting in distortions of actual project costs and profits.
