      Pros

      Safe and steady. Consistent work stream. Decent work/life balance. Friendly work atmosphere. If you want a steady job with great benefits and aren't overly interested in building a resume, PGE could be a good fit for you.

      Cons

      Little advancement opportunity. Not much exciting work. Dated technology. Poor leadership (out of touch, micromanagement). Overbearing amount of administrative work (timecards, paperwork, meetings, etc.). Meetings. Meetings. Meetings. If you're not in 6-7 meetings a day, the key resource you need to work with is, or your manager is. If you want fast-paced, exciting work with lots of resume building and growth opportunities, I would look elsewhere.

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits (although not what they once were).

      Cons

      Limited advancement potential. Hiring pretty well who you know rather than what you know.
