Pros

Many opportunities to travel to other Tri-State facilities. They dont "skimp" on the fringe benefits; catered meals, ergonomics, technology, etc.

Cons

Many decisions are made to be politically correct instead of what's best for the company/members. Seems that there is a "good ole' boy" attitude and that sometimes hinders forward movement. The culture sometimes feels like Tri-State COMPETES with neighboring entities instead of working with them to ensure reliability of the Bulk Electric System.

Pros

Good benefits. Hard to get fired. Opportunities to learn if so inclined. Some great lower level people who make the place go. Find a manager and play the political game. You won’t have to work. Some employees have light workloads and can get away with not doing much

Cons

Upper management is disingenuous. HR takes the side of management in all matters. Political environment with cliques. Dysfunctional practices and an inability to hear feedback. Self defeating practices. They increased the amount of upper management by maybe 50% during Highleys tenure while cutting down on employees and benefits to cut rates which did not happen. No pension for new hires. Have lost numerous members due to exits and more have announced. They plan to supplement loss of members to serve data centers. Overall not a good recipe for success
