Pros

Fortune 500 company, access to latest technology, interesting company and service delivery. Very nice working environment, nice facilities. Company has a great reputation in the communities it serves.

Cons

Layers and layers of management slow down the development process. Many decisions require multiple layers of approval. Work is paced in short bursts of productivity.

Pros

Strong job stability in a regulated utility environment, along with competitive pay and solid benefits package. My immediate team is genuinely supportive and collaborative — we work well together and have each other's backs. The work itself offers a sense of purpose given the essential nature of the industry.

Cons

Upper management operates with limited transparency and decisions flow strictly top-down, with little visibility into the reasoning behind strategic choices. The compensation structure does not differentiate for high performers — annual raises tend to land at or below inflation. Work groups across the department are heavily siloed, which limits cross-functional collaboration and slows knowledge sharing and adds frustration.
