Pros

Workplace was close to home, great rapport with teammates, loved the work I was doing.

Cons

Company culture has changed drastically over last few years... Company used to look after the employees and employees were loyal and supported the company. Now, over the last few years, Management vision has changed, employee don't matter any more... Hard work, commitment, honestly, loyalty etc don't get you far, connections and politics does... Re-orgs, downsizing and lack of vision...

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. As you know, growing companies have to make some hard trade-offs as they scale. One of those for us was to streamline our IT organization. Competition in the industry from current and new energy producers means we must stay cost competitive. That means we need to control the amount of rate inflation to all customers. We appreciate your hard work while you were with us, and wish you the best for the future.

Pros

Great benefits. Depending on your department and manager, they may do a lot and help you with your career path. Work-life balance is a joke! IT is not the place to be for work-life balance.

Cons

There is no communication within the company. There are communication at the higher and public level. In regards to changes within organizations, there is always a hesitation. There is no collaboration within the organizations.

Pros

Used to have a great culture and work ethic among all employees in IT. It was very easy to develop great relationships with those you worked with and for.

Cons

Since they began reorganization of IT, and the transition to managed services... The SCE IT culture has taken a serious nose dive. The company is looking to remove the "stale" knowledge and talent of their IT staff... but they are largely loosing their most talented and intelligent staff as they are looking outside the company so they can find a more rewarding and pleasant employer/company to work for.
