Pros

Large Organization with many opportunities because of high turnover. The Knoxville worksite is a lower stress environment. Vacation package and Livewell Centers are excellent.

Cons

The Power Production Plant Schedules can be insane with a poor work life management balance. A weak First Line Management with heavy HR Force in order to keep wages down. Most Senior Positions are filled from outside, so no inside employee track to Senior Positions. Health Benefits are weak and expensive. The Retirement System is deeply underwater. Per current media reports the company may be "for sale".
