Toxic company culture and incompetent leadership.

Pros

Relative to the other utilities in the region I can’t think of anything good to say.

Cons

Since this is generally a poor place to work relative to other utilities in the region the turnover is extremely high, institutional knowledge is rarely accumulated and talented employees are hard to find. Management/leaders don’t care about you. The personality required to succeed as a manager at PacifiCorp is generally one that does not lend itself to empathy, compassion or any other value that promotes a positive culture. The company has become so obsessed with cost cutting and the bottom line that working overtime on weekdays and working during your weekends (without overtime pay of any sort) has become the norm and is expected in some departments. The compensation offered by PacifiCorp is extremely low relative to similar positions at the other utilities in the region. Your relatively low pay as a salaried employee will look even lower after taking into account the amount of time you spend working outside the compensated work hours.

Pros

Discount on power bill Compensation was competitive Some Travel My boss did seem to discourage working more than 40 hours a week, this wasn't true in other areas though.

Cons

The environment was toxic Bosses micromanaged in every group Very little upward mobility. Your chances of moving up are very slim. They don't trust you as an employee, they lock up the office supplies.
