Pros

Good compensation, benefits include medical, dental and vision, 401k match, and a pension. In general, rank and file employees are treated with respect by leadership. Managers listen the the opinions of their subordinates and inter-departmental collaboration is encouraged.

Cons

401k match isn't as high as that of other employers. Leadership positions are often filled by outside candidates. AECC will not provide the leadership experience they require for management positions, but won't promote without it either. Employees are regularly pushed to work longer hours than normal. There is a lack of diversity at remote locations and it shows. Plant staff (including management) are vocal about their political opinions and intolerant of divergent viewpoints.

Pros

Arkansas Electric is an awesome company to work for. HR always throws together events for employees to attend to meet other people within the organization. The pay in my opinion is competitive. The atmosphere is wonderful. This is for sure a family friendly company. Really laid back.

Cons

I guess some of the cons would be that things tend to move a little slower around here in terms of getting projects done. Also I would say some people that have been here for years tend to be set in their ways and not very open to new ideas or suggestions on new technology.
