Duke Energy reviews

You won't promote unless you play the good ole boy system. There's no people of color in upper leadership. You can feel the racism in the company. No matter how much work you do. If somebody daddy use to work there. They're getting the job or promotion.

Advancement largely depends on how much management likes you. Favoritism is a huge problem within the company Constantly making org changes. One manager/director/board member leaves the company and their replacement comes in with all kinds of "wonderful" ideas. I cannot tell you how often this happened while I worked there. Teams have to work around the changes only for there to be a fairly good chance the changes do not stick, and you are back to square one Disorganized, required information is often held tightly by individuals to ensure their relevance to the company. Important information is often not communicated as it should be Most people begin as contractors, and contractors are treated as outsiders. With vastly different pay and benefits compared to their FTE counterparts When a position opens up and they are looking to transition a contractor to an FTE position, management will decide who they want to fill that position and secretly let their desired candidate know so they alone can apply. Which is entirely against the law. I only became an FTE because I subtly called them out on this
