Pros

The workers that keep the lights on are all great folks. They are focused, intelligent, and faithful, with an excellent work ethic.

Cons

Throughout the company, front line and middle management seems to lack clear vision. Their focus appears to be on survival. Senior leadership has done little to inspire confidence. Executive leadership seems to be all about reducing overhead to make the company look better on paper. Very few of the senior staff are "home grown". The majority are from other, more cut throat, industries, and they brought that mentality to PPL. Unfortunately, dedication and loyalty are quickly becoming antique notions at this company. Politics and alliances are the only way to advance past middle management. Thinking for yourself and taking initiative can get you rewarded in some (rare) cases, marginalized in most others.
