Pros

Stability of a company with a 100 year track record of success... Large employee base with opportunities for movement within the organization. Generally employee friendly. Emphasis on work/life balance. HR and other organizations are very pro employee and insure a diverse workplace. Compensation and benefits are above average.

Cons

Large regulated company that moves slowly. Senior management has been in place for quite some time and is generally illustrative of the lack of evolution. Much of the culture is slow, steady, and inwardly focused. Some managers are like parasites and auger into the company as there's little risk of being dismissed.

Pros

Job Security, you don't have to travel much. Good work-life balance. Good work mates. There is alot of nepotism among utilities. Meaning that once you worked for one utility it is very easy to go and find a home in another utility. This is a great company to work for if you have a family and you place a high priority on family time.

Cons

It's borring. Things move at a glacial speed. Management is very ego-centric, meaning that they'll ignore most of what underlings have to say. We're definitely not in the leading edge. If you really love technology and where it is going, this is not the place to come.
