      Pros

      AEP has an amazing work life balance and career trajectory.

      Cons

      They hire through outside contractors so it takes at least a year to actually become an AEP employee. This process is supposed to change soon.

      It only got worse

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The benefits cannot be beat with a pension and 401k match. Work life balance can also be amazing depending on the position.

      Cons

      The culture has been on the decline since Nick Akins retired from CEO. The new CEO is a price of work and there has been churn at the executive level that has negatively impacted the working culture and conditions.
