Pros
The pay is nothing to complain about, and the benefits as of now are pretty great.
Cons
The future for working class employees, ie the ones keeping the gas and electricity on and flowing, fixing faults, outages, broken lines, gas leaks, etc. Is looking worse and worse with every contract negotiation. The CEO and other executives can make millions or even tens of millions a year, get ridiculous raises, and want even more! Now they are looking to get that money from the working class that keeps this company going! Even going as far as to take retirement health benefits from current and future employees! That's a real nice thank you for giving them 30-40 years of your life for their business! Terrible communication, and really behind the times compared to many other utility companies. Company leaves standards vague and puts ALL of the responsibility on the employees. Terrible at parting with their money to get employees the help or tools that we need. Bottom line is that not too long ago this was a great company that seemed to care about their employees more than their budget, however since Ben took over everyone seems to have forgotten how and who makes this company function/money. If things keep going this way they are going to end up losing many employees to better companies. They also run a high risk of ending up on the news in a bad way...its going to be tough for them to fix broken lines, outages, etc. after they've ran off all of their OQ qualified workers! I wonder if Ben or any executive for that matter knows the first thing about fixing an underground fault? Or how to how to tap and stop 3" PVC gas line when it's broke and blowing 60 PSI in the middle of the road? This company needs to wake up and take care of the people who take care if them!
