Pros

Work load is reasonable, compensation is fair enough in today's employment market. Intelligent innovative younger workforce. Very aesthetically pleasing building and grounds. They spent a lot of money to build a very nice home office. Power Design is good at what they do and is one of the larger privately held electrical contractors. Nice company events and beautiful women everywhere.

Cons

The CEO Mitch Permuy has the biggest ego of any person you will ever meet in life.... millionaires and billionaires included. He has an extremely hot temper, is rude and unprofessional. This somewhat sets the tone of the overall company because others appear to be afraid of disagreeing with him. You could literally hear him cursing and yelling from 100 feet away with his door closed. This is not a pleasant environment to be around. Turnover is extremely high, you never know who will be gone the next day.

Pros

-Good working culture specifically for younger individuals looking to “work hard play hard” -Resources galore -Extensive state of the art campus

Cons

-There is a strong “suck-up” culture, whoever spends the most time currying favor with management appear to receive the most opportunities and perks -Underwhelming salaries for the amount of work, and the amount of flashy cars, and several thousand-dollar parties, among other things displayed at every corner of the office and work events -The culture tends to have a “high school environment” where people talk openly about others’ personal lives seeking retribution -One thing you can bet on is the number of empty promises from management, specifically executives
