      Great atmosphere, truly care about their employees, could improve on retention strategies.

      Pros

      Atmosphere is laid back and promotes a strong work ethic through employee ownership and responsibility on projects. People genuinely feel part of a team and want to see the team succeed. Benefits are well above average, emphasis on employee morale throughout the company is a definite positive. Overtime is there for those who want it but not expected for fear of penalty. Variety of projects and potential to travel (in general given as an option) is a nice benefit.

      Cons

      Compensation is average to below average for the field, tends to matchup with cost of living at least for some of the offices. People who leave the company and return later or are recruited from other firms tend to be paid more than those who have been with the company for the same duration, often considerably more. This does not instill a positive "retention" atmosphere or view by the employee that career advancement within POWER is financially rewarding until possibly becoming a stockholder which is also often given to those from other firms as a recruiting tool.

      Fantastic, until ex-Micron workers came in.

      Pros

      Laid back atmosphere, friendly people, free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate. Fun outings. Beer and wine coolers on Friday afternoons.

      Cons

      Was a good place to work until ex-Micron people came in around five years ago. The IT department has far too many managers, is an overhead department, and spends way too much money. Pay is below average, and raises are inconsistent. Mid to upper level management personnel are secure in their positions.

      Good culture

      Pros

      I liked the overall culture. The company philosophy is very much about work/life balance. From top management on down you'll find that folks support a balanced approach. As a consulting engineering firm they do good work, care about their clients and work to ensure quality engineering is delivered. The company delegates project related decision making as far down as possible, which empowers engineers and PM's to make the right decisions for clients.

      Cons

      Pay structure for the consulting business is on the lower end of the spectrum in my experience. I wasn't dissatisfied with my own pay, but when hiring new employees with hard to find skill sets it could be a challenge. Company is very busy which is a pro, con to that is finding new work can be frustrating as finding internal resources to perform the work is a challenge.
