Entergy reviews

This site is also full of clicks, politicians, and brown nosers on the job who get favored for any incitive as well as if they cause trouble things will never be directed toward them. It would be gratified with a promotion. The saying here is "you won't get a raise if you don't mess up enough". A pay increase is one of the most difficult things to get onsite even if you qualify for it. HR drag their feet and prolong the situation. Managers, superintendent, and supervisor are afraid of making their bosses mad because of getting a lashing no matter if things benefit the plant, workers, or company. It's like living in an anarchy. Communication is worse then anywhere I have ever been. The majority of the worker in my department are not homegrown and uses the place for training purposes, get trained up and leave in less than 2yrs.

Everything ran within this company is ran by the whims of management. There is no rhyme or reason. Forward an email from your boss asking for something? Trouble. Legal not reviewing your work in time? Your fault. Regulatory not understanding? Why haven't you made them? I emailed you last night. Why didn't you respond? Want to have weekly calls, where nothing gets accomplished, and then meet up later on another call to discuss an issue that should have been handled on the first? "We can't spend money. We need to run a tight ship right now." Oh? How many conferences, trips, and made-up excuses to travel does management need? We're supposed to save money for customers, but oh hey, let's go out and spend hundreds of dollars on food for a CEO being in town. Absolute joke. The "Lead Team" sits on calls where they find ways to spend more money without questioning it. In essence, it's a group of managers that acts as a cabal running a investor-owned-utility. They will work amongst only themselves, and prevent any others from discussing or participating. It's embarrassing as they have management only events, which again are paid for through customers without any ability for them to object to the costs, that only 10 people out of the entire state are invited to. What makes it even worse, is this "Lead Team" is constantly traveling on conferences, retreats, communications events, meeting with legislators, so they never actually get work done. You're constantly waiting on them and then expected to drop whatever you're doing on a whim to respond in a timely manner. This team is in constant flux just as a result of turnover. How can one of the most stable industries, utilities, not be able to maintain its employees? Ask the "Lead Team" but good luck getting a response either in time, or one that hasn't been through 800 reviews before it's been emailed back to you. Yes, literally - you are expected to send emails for management approval, BEFORE you can send them to anyone else. Not work product, but actual emails. It may seem made up, but this place is absolutely a joke. You know it's absolutely terrible, whenever an attorney relocates across the country and within 6 months they have completely forgone their law degree and sought employment elsewhere. That is the level of micromanagement that occurs within this company.
