Pros

Big company, lots of lateral positions to move around in, comparable pay

Cons

For profit so can be cheap with its employees. Policies not flexible for taking kids to doctors. At times other departments act as separate companies and information is hard to get

Anonymous employee

Pros

Great pay and friendly co-workers

Cons

Only reason they care about safety is because everyone gets a huge bonus if rating is below threshold. They train every employee entirely different and expect same results. They do not care about individual employees different needs.

Pros

This job and benefits are among the better companies around this area for a person with only a high school education.

Cons

As an older lineman. It is not easy to get out of such a physical position. There are times when I felt trapped, to young to retire and to old to start over.
