Beware of AMI

Part time meter reader

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Pay for a part time job. You get benefits once you reach 1000 hrs. of work time. Also, If you like something that's out of the office cubicle, this is the job for you.

Cons

Pretty much no time for career advancement due to AMI (Automated Meter Infrastructure). All meter reading employees are "at will", which means you can be fired at any moment, for any reason management deems fit.

A great job

Administrative assistant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A great place to work if you want to be overpaid and underworked. I came from a non-profit organization and the work load at SCG was nothing comparatively.

Cons

Sometimes it got boring. It is a "who you know" more than a "what you know" for advancement
