      By far, the best company I've ever worked for

      Pros

      Union representation, good pay, comfortable office, customer service oriented, plenty of sick days and vacation days. For someone who's not attempting to get into management, office politics are not an issue. A lot of time and money goes into its employees in potlucks and incentives for working safely. Even though advancement is mainly based on seniority so people who may not be best qualified for a position may get it, a lot of training and coaching is provided so employees are competent.

      Cons

      It's very easy to get too comfortable and settle in one position if you're not proactive. This isn't the company's fault but it does happen.

      If you like to stay at one position for the rest of your life, then you will like it here.

      Pros

      Very stable (natural gas will be here for a long time and its almost impossible to be let go), yearly bonus, generally friendly people, nice building downtown, 401K AND a pension (which is rare),

      Cons

      Lower than market pay, politics, old school, likes to hire from low ranked colleges (LaVerne, CalState), advanced education is not valued or required, bitter life long employees, no progression at all unless you jump around from department to department (its the only way to get ahead), your title will be very "junior" despite years of service -which is to your disadvantage if you look externally for a job,
