Act like they care but they don't

Pros

Nice coworkers Okay compensation Not high pressure

Cons

Not as competitive compensation due to being a "public utility" Upper management does not care about you, all they care about is making the board/shareholders happy and making their own money. A vast majority of employees are against returning to office, and have shown time and time again that they are productive, but yet they are still being forced back in office, some have to drive over an hour each way. Upper management is detached from reality and doesn't realize how it makes life a lot harder for the people who are not making 200k+, all they see is "I want to make the board/shareholders happy so I can get my bonus that is bigger than some people make in a year". In addition to that they keep cutting spending on things that shouldn't be cut, and are making employees pile more work onto already big plates

Pros

Actually hired by a family and did training and employment through PPL. Most of my positive interactions are because of the family rather than the company, who I interacted with rarely.

Cons

When I did need something, like help with a missing paycheck or training, they became annoyingly difficult to get a hold of.
