Pros

Company provides livable wages for So Cal to all fulltime employees. The company has not had any major layoffs since the 90's and they value honesty, safety, and diversity. There is plenty of opportunities to for professional development and managers take the time to help employees be the best person in their job

Cons

Difficult to move up in the company and move out of current positions. The company has an old school mind set of staying in a job for 10 years. Knowledge transfer when getting into a job is not great, so there is a lot just figuring it out when you first start a job.

Pros

Good pay, decent work, you start early and end early (this is only from a part-time perspective). Get lots of exercise and meet a lot of people while working. A great company if you are looking for a safe and stable company to work for.

Cons

Whatever the weather or temperature of the day, you work. Also, since meter reading is going away due to automatic meters, the workforce is dying down and the job isn't as important as it used to be. To move to other positions you must complete multiple tests before they even consider you, even if you are the best person for the job. Same goes for seniority.
