Idaho Power cares for their people

Pros

A pension ( unheard of these days ) good pay, good benefits, 401k match and decent time off. Generally, they try to do their best for their employees. Lots of programs focused on keeping people safe. In the recent past I've been able to be honest about my concerns, had them heard and addressed. This happens slowly, but there was no retaliation and change is happening based on constructive feedback.

Cons

The biggest downside is that they try to staff such that there will never be a need to do a layoff. This is a good thing long term, but there are times when you have way more work than time to do it in.

Awesome place to work

Pros

Idaho Power is a wonderful place to work. The company truly values its employees and invests in them and encourages their growth and achievement. But at the same time the culture isn't an always-on, 60-work week culture. You're encouraged to have a good work-life balance – get your work done, do a good job, and go home to your family. Competitive salary, and one of the few private employers to offer a pension AND a 401k match, which is a huge bonus.

Cons

There's work to do on DEI, but that seems to be changing for the better.

Pros

Idaho Power pays very well, has good benefits - including a pension, and is a good company to work for. Lisa Grow cares about the company and the employees and is continuously working to make Idaho Power better for customers and employees.

Cons

Like any big company, local or departmental leadership is the driving force of the teams attitude and work life balance. This can be different across the company depending on leadership/team. Unless you work in Boise area, there are not a lot of room for advancement, as the skill level is very specialized in regional areas.
