Great Company

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great company to work for. Union is a little bit weaker than government-run utilities but stronger than most private-run utilities. Pay and benefits are excellent and the work is super reliable and consistent as it is a utility.

Cons

I wish the CEO and the top executives didn't take home millions of dollars a year and instead took home maybe 1 million a year just because that pay could be spread out more amongst the employees.
