Pros

The company offers a strong and comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, life insurance, a 7% 401(k) match, and a pension plan. Employees also have access to valuable training, opportunities for career advancement, and the ability to earn additional income through overtime. Annual salary increases and performance bonuses further strengthen the overall compensation package. The organization also maintains a strong commitment to workplace safety.

Cons

As with any energy-production company, there is constant pressure to return equipment to service as quickly as possible. The frustration comes from being expected to complete numerous administrative and procedural requirements, including documenting ancillary tasks and circle-slashing every applicable procedure, while still maintaining top efficiency. Employees are also expected to keep up with a demanding maintenance schedule, restore downed turbines quickly, and manage the workload despite ongoing staffing shortages. These competing priorities make it extremely challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance, and burnout occurs frequently as employees struggle to meet the company’s expectations safely and thoroughly.
