Southern California Edison reviews

For the first two years I was very happy because I was so focused on getting promoted due my experience and post graduate education. I started seeing how other people were getting treated which was very poor and is now a continuing pattern. Union or non union it made no difference as to the poor treatment received. I was given access to lay off transcripts by management and was saddened to read that the first words out of the lay off specialist was " your lay off has nothing to do with your work performance at SCE " . The VPs did not deny effort to lay off with little regard to service or education. I saw employees with Masters degrees and over thirty years of service get kicked to the trash can. After I investigated I found the typical rational for large corps. was to increase revenue and hide behind the Visa laws ( the legality is still be questioned ) . Once upon a time SCE was family now SCE is like a very dysfunctional family full of hate and discontent for others in the family. The bottom line is that no only are the employees suffering but perhaps most important so are the customers.

Multiple rounds of layoffs ("OpX") of all non-field jobs have left employee morale broken with no trust in leadership. Many departments have went through 2 or 3 major layoff rounds in past 3-4 years with more to come and no real end in sight. Company is hiring overpriced external consulting companies (i.e. Bain and friends) and evaluating and outsourcing anything it can as that is the strategy-du-jour. Commitment to employees and well-being are nothing more than hollow phrases. Rumors of the company being set up to be sold don't help morale.
