Pros

Most existing employees are still dedicated to upholding the 100 year old SCE ideals of Good service, square dealing and courteous treatment. Unfortunately, upper management has long abandoned these qualities for "lets F the employees and customers so we can line our pockets with more $$$"

Cons

Cost cutting to the point of no return, too many good people are being shown the door with no regard to the talent and experience being lost; just to save a few dollars compared to the young, green and inexperienced who they can pay less in salary and benefits. Layoffs are continuing with no end in sight. Employees completely demoralized as they wait to get severed, and severance benefits appear to get worse and worse with each consecutive go around. So sad to see a once great and respected part of SoCal life reduced to a joke. Check out SCE's Yelp ratings to see how customers view the company; not good is putting it lightly.

Pros

Benefits - Above average salaries, benefits include Pension and company match 401k

Cons

Nepotism, promotions not based on actual ability/qualifications but who you know and how much you agree with management. MANY people promoted based only on their friendship/loyalty to upper management with no regard to skills/ability/qualifications. Also, manager retaliation for "going against the grain" is a GIVEN in all departments, but especially in the LAW Department.

Pros

The work and the people.

Cons

Poor leadership. They seem to excel in casebook studies of how not to do things and how to disengage engaged employees.
