Portland General Electric reviews

The people who have spent their careers here are very uninformed about successful management strategies evolving over the last 20 years. You're treated like a new hire until you've been here for 10 years. By that time, they've usually beaten all of the initiative out of you and you are content to collect a paycheck and wait for direct orders. If you're looking for a company where you can retire in place, this is it.

Too many old people work here (That sounds mean, it isn't intended to be. We don't value people's accomplishments rather, their years of service) Poor people management - sorry not everyone is doing such a great job that they deserve a pay increase each year. Promotions to management are often for the best workers, not the best managers Attitude is fully reactive and not proactive. Inconsistent policies which are not enforced and therefore, are irrelevant. People hanging on until they can retire - many employees have been moved out of management positions due to performance but have retained their salary. There is a huge lack of trust in the company, employees don't trust supervisors, supervisors don't trust management, and management massages information to give to executives. People guard their fiefdoms with all of their energy instead of working harder to improve their outputs.
