Pros

Decent benefits and lots of opportunities to move around

Cons

Silos are everywhere with no common goal across the enterprise. No overtime for storm response which seems to be every week in operations so plan on working 60 hours a week plus. Absolutely horrible quality of life. Forget having time with your family if you're in operations. No ownership from executives, they push the program Extreme Ownership, but when things go wrong guess who pays, not them, the front line workers. They claim diversity and inclusion yet only hire old white men from Boston to run things in operations which leads to more of the same in all three of its states.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Normal vacation. Interesting job, meaning it’ll keep you mind sharp.

Cons

There are no goals or expectations set that allows you to prove you’re ready for growth. The only way to advance your career is to be one of the cool guys OR work 16 hours a day and weekends. Bonuses and merit increase is the same across the board no matter how much extra you do. The work force is too small for customer/management and the expectations are set too high. There are not enough vehicles for the work force and often times trainees have no way of getting to the job site. We would run out of stock items (cable,wire,connections,transformer,safety gear) that are necessary to keep the power on. Our best coworkers have left for biggest competitor…me too.
