Overall a good experience

Electrical engineering intern

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great learning experience, left with a heap of knowledge about the distribution system. Worked with some great people, made lifelong friends.

Cons

Can be a very bureaucratic, gossipy atmosphere. Some work can be very dull and meticulous, but this is typical for most internships.

It is a good, easy summer job

Student co-op

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The work is easy and you learn a lot about the business, software packages they use, and gain customer relation experience.

Cons

I have not received a full-time offer yet even though I am graduating at the end of the year. They want me to have my degree before they interview me for a full-time position. This is not across all groups, just the one I was in.

Great culture, but Storm Duty is silly

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Higher-level managers will take time from their day to come talk to you Teams work well together Good pay and benefits Very flexible with your time and needs

Cons

Every time a few drops of rain falls, 50,000 people are out of power. They fix it very quickly, but everyone who is not an engineer or repair crew is eligible for Storm Duty, which is essentially putting on a hard hat and standing by a downed power line to make sure no people go near it until a repair person shows up. Even if you are making $100k a year, you still have to go out like a crossing guard.
