Pros

Good benefits, the alternate Friday off is an excellent benefit

Cons

Too many levels of levels between entry level and management which can be discouraging to the millenial generation, who my choose to move on to other opportunities.

Pros

The job security is pretty good, pay is at least average if not above average, opportunities for making extra money (i.e. excess straight time for salaried folks) during planned outages, and ability to work a 4/10 schedule (during non-outage periods).

Cons

I left the company after a couple of years because I believe that working in the field of nuclear power as an engineer can result in pigeon-holing the employee such that they are not prepared to go work anywhere outside of the nuclear industry. Majority of time is spent doing repetitive, non-value added work. Lots of focus on training, but not a lot of depth to the training. High stakes job = high stress job. Additionally, no guarantee that the plant will continue to operate until I'm ready to retire (i.e. 20 year license extension; who knows if it will be renewed when that expires).

Pros

NONE- Keep out of this LOSER COMPANY!

Cons

LEO Denault the CEO has eliminated pensions for new employees, increased retiree MEDICAL preiums by 100%, closed Plants and lined his own pockets with huge bonuses, salary and benefits. After all- he has KIDS that need to go to IVY LEAGUE COLLEGES and become CEOs! Raises are non existent for individual contributors. Bonus was cut in half by Bill MOHL and the board. Yet they are giving tens on millions to States and other utilities in profits to buy silence and better relations. LEO's Motto- I GOT MINE- SCREW YOU! Morale has never been lower and Leo Denault will destroy Entergy but enrich himself!
