Pros

Best reason is that most employees are fantastic to work with, from clerical through managerial. The company also has great benefits, especially PTO. Clean, professional working atmosphere. The company has diverse departments from energy trading to eagle watching. Provides critical services to the community. Good internal communication from management to the workforce.

Cons

No clear succession plan; Director level positions often hired from the outside. Termination policies for non-represented personnel are questionable. Too many changes in management oversight of departments. Personnel Assessment forms used to determine employee performance often confusing as are assigned goals.

I've found PSE to be a good place to work: great people who care about serving customers.

Business Outlook

Pros

PSE provides an essential service, and employees are committed to keeping the energy flowing. The company has high ethical standards. It treats people well. It has good leadership and generally chooses good people for leadership roles. The new CEO, Kimberly Harris, really encourages transparency and open communication.

Cons

Some customers can't stand the fact that they have no choice of utility, so they have little patience for power outages or bills they think are too high. Turnover among the better jobs is low, and people often spend an entire career here, so advancement may be slower than in other large companies.
