Pros

Xcel is a great mission-focused organization. Strong focus on customer service. Good working culture. Many highly talented individuals.

Cons

Because it is a public-owned utility with limits on its ability to increase revenue, there are significant constraints on employment opportunity and career growth. While they attract a lot of talent, it is difficult to retain the talent without career growth/promotion opportunities.

Pros

Work-life balance, okay benefits, and cemented impact on the community

Cons

Because the company has a bottom line, promotional paths aren't really a thing beyond individual contributor to manager. I don't know what the next level up would be besides that.
