Pros

The pay and benefits at SCE are excellent for most positions. SCE is a large company with opportunities to transfer to other organizations within the company.

Cons

Downsizing has been underway for several years. Workload is high and hours are long. Morale is suffering and many people I know in my organization are looking for another position. It used to be a great place to work but I can't say that today. Check back in a few years after things settle down.

Pros

The pay and benefits were both very good. Most colleagues and managers were great to work with, and I learned a lot professionally.

Cons

The company is currently in the mode of downsizing, outsourcing and off-shoring, so there are not many opportunities here if you are looking for long-term and/or full-time employment as an actual employee of SCE. My job was outsourced and as a condition of receiving my severance, I had to train my replacement, as did many other people who were also laid off. It seems like the company is only interested in satisfying the stock holders, no matter the cost of human capital.

Pros

The people here are great.

Cons

This utility lacks innovation and a clear vision for the future. Leadership is on an program initiative treadmill, and send mixed messages by saying they are trying to achieve one thing and then doing the opposite.
