Pros

Coworkers, earn effort and amazing culture

Cons

Insane amount of overtime and micromanagement, seems some managers and supervisor do not have a clue about how to lead a team but somehow are still able to have their manager jobs. It is a bit concerning HR has not taken action despite several complaints from employees. Salaries are low compared to the rest of the industry, thus only a very few employees are now making long-term carriers at Ercot
