Pros

401k Match Fitness Reimbursement Great Medical and Dental Benefits It pay more than some jobs.

Cons

If you are not part of the clique, you will not last long. Nepotism, two faced managers, discrimination you name it ...its there. It is not want you know but rather who you know that creates long term employment at Edison Enormous amount of money and bonuses paid to Managers that basically do nothing and will do whatever to whom ever to appear efficient to Directors and Stakeholders

Pros

Decent Benefits, wages, union job, big California utility, better options on the power side of the company. Stay away from the IT/Telecom department

Cons

Completely mismanaged all the way to the director level. Management in the IT/Telecom department are all "Yes Men". They lack the intestinal fortitude to speak up for what is right, even when they know certain things they are doing is wrong. Middle management doesn't even trust upper management. The managers don't even know the technologies that their employees use or or working with, so frustrating. Currently IT/Telecom is the laughing stock of the company, but management doesn't even care about making improvements.

Not the Same Company

Pros

Reasonable Benefits, Competitive Salary, 6% Matching 401k, and 25% Discount on Electrical Bill. The work is stimulating and keeps you busy.

Cons

The working groups are very difficult to work with and can be very competitive, even among those who are in your same group. Diversity can be nice but causes many cultural conflicts. To be honest, I am an American Traditionalist and it is sad to see the American Values that this company once held erode over the years by compromises and the bottom-line.
