Pros

Above average benefits, good pay

Cons

Benefits have been taken away over the last few years. IT is moving to a managed services model laying off hundreds. No work life balance for IT.

Pros

Good pay considering the poor conditions

Cons

I was in a hostile work environment which I reported to my manager on several occasions. He told me it was up to me to suck it up and to "make it work" or I would no longer be in line for promotions. It is a horribly male dominated culture in which there has never been a female leader of Transmission and Distribution! There is much discussion of equal opportunity but little to show for it. THIS place is terrible even thought the glossy brochures would have you believe something else.

Just not the same

Pros

Good benefits; physical work environments are nice. They promote work-life balance and most leadership is understanding of life events. Work schedules are usually fairly flexible, some areas offer alternate schedules such as 9/80's.

Cons

Company culture has diminished significantly over the last 3 years, especially in business areas where major layoffs have occurred to make way for outsourcing. Many who went to work for the stability of a utility have found themselves jobless. Career opportunities are not as plentiful as they once were. Employee morale has suffered greatly as a result of the major changes.
