Pros

Good work atmosphere. People are very open to share and teach others if ever there is a question or problem. Working remotely. Flexible hours and overtime almost always available.

Cons

Good career advancement in the beginning, but seems lacking after some time working there. People seem to come and go all to often.

Pros

Most supervisors are good, understanding people. Very clean office space, good pay.

Cons

Upper management does not communicate. Some of the upper management seems to enjoy intimidating young, new employees. My training was almost non-existent, and what there was of it was irregular and broken up. I was expected to catch on very quickly with a huge amount of procedure and information. Mistakes were met with sharp criticism and being called into a conference room for another round of intimidation rather than instruction and correction. Later in employment was told my work was very good and was asked to train a new employee to do my job, for the reason that the workload was just supposedly too large for one person. Out of nowhere I was then terminated, upper management refused to give me a specific reason.

Pros

If you really work hard and show an attention to detail, you will be rewarded and made to feel appreciated. Pay is competetive. Do som research on average local pay for a position and it will be reasonably close. Work on a wide array of projects, learn a ton about utility engineering. If you have a little bit of experience and a willingness to learn, you will be trained in specific things you will need to know.

Cons

90 probationary period without benefits. You are expected to perform and held accountable, can be very stressful if you aren't used to it. Job may involve (paid) driving from Baltimore to DC every day. Traffic is bad.
