OK if you don't mind fighting your own company

Pros

The pay is OK, the benefits are pretty good (education fund)

Cons

Culture of individuality (if you talk to anyone, they will steal your idea), prevailing culture of dishonesty (either people are incompetent or they are actively lying: to people, in documents, etc.), and substantial berating of diversity (racism, antisemitism, sexism, etc. are the dominant culture and form of communication). This is not the young employees who don't know how to behave in a professional environment, but company life-time employees, showing that this started 100 years ago, and is still the dominant culture that leads to advancement.

Pros

Fair pay, good time off when needed. At one time the union was strong and protected the employee but with automation there less employess to protect. The retirement package is half of what I netted so its not CEO retirement but livable.

Cons

With lay offs due to automation the employee has become less and less important. SCE would lie to a persons face then denie it unless you had your voice activated tape recorder working. SCE was sued and lost over racial discrimination so the tape recordings were very important for forceing SCE to comply with their own directives. The litigation is only one example of SCE not treating the employee iwth dignity and respect.If you are better educated than supervisors or managers they will hold you down. If you are a minority you have to watch your back 24/7 on and off company property.
