Pros

Nothing that any other job doesn’t offer.

Cons

By all means, work for a outdated company with outdated policies. Come join Prime Electric and get bent over backwards by a bunch of boomers sitting in their corporate office. Never have I been inside a building with people more full of themselves then this company. Save your time and go where they will appreciate you and your work.

Watch Your Back - Trust No One!

Pros

- Prime has decent benefits. - Average to below average pay for industry. - They waste a lot of money on company events, picnics, Ragnar sponsorships, races and luxurious parties for Sales and their customers (in exchange for good pay). If this is your thing instead of good compensation, then it's a pro!

Cons

- Leadership is terrible. The leaders will lull you with a warm welcome and talk about being a caring company, But they will later treat you with a passive aggressive nature if you’re not part of the cool kids club. It's a very gossipy environment that starts at the top. They may not give you constructive criticism or any criticism at all, But they will talk about you behind your back, change policies or address the whole company about minor issues that one or a couple people are having, and then make it a big deal as a company, rather than tackling the problem upfront with the people involved. -It’s a constant high and low, depending on the amazing thing you did for them that week. They will forget the 50+ hour weeks and the many times you have to pull out your laptop on PTO/vacation the second you make one minor blunder or say one wrong thing. The leadership team will give you no guidance or mentorship unless you're one of their stars. They will either bark orders at you or give you passive aggressive responses and discuss your problems behind your back. - The DEI program is facade. They play up the charade for their customers talking about the minimal donations they make to lots of charities but their practices are discriminatory towards woman and minorities. Look around - most of their leadership and shareholders are white males. They act like a boys club in and out of the office. If you disagree with one of them or stand up to them, the complaint will spread like wildfire amongst the boys club. Ask them what percentage of their employees are women/minorities - it’s particularly hard to have minorities/woman when they have a different expectation from you than their other white counterparts. Woman with kids? Don’t even expect to get past a certain level. Your child gets sick and you have to stay home? Well, they want you in the office 100% of the time for a job that can very well be done at home. You will be penalized in a passive aggressive way. It's a boys club and it feels like it. My advice - don’t stay too long, don’t play into their “loyalty”, and don’t trust the leadership team.

Old School Company

Pros

Nothing... really. The company has lots of flaws. but one of the pro would be the healthcare that is provided.

Cons

Very old fashioned company that requires employees to be in office during a pandemic, employees are treated differently between their departments, no career growth (meaning, they continue to hire from outside rather promoting within), over worked and not paid enough, culture has shifted in a negative way, no work-life balance, senior management need training themselves. Undervalued and unappreciated. Get everything(i.e your raises, promotion) in writing, this company WILL play you with many loopholes that they have on their own terms that make no sense. They do not follow the employee handbook. Would not recommend to a friend, I recommend applying elsewhere where your voice matters.
