Pros

Outstanding benefits (including such perks as profit sharing, paid gym, performance bonus), pleasant work environment (my department anyway), supportive management, friendly and professional teammates. Met people from other departments, SCE overall appears to be a pleasant place to work.

Cons

Have heard some divisions and managers are slave drivers and very tough to work for. Must serve 1.5 years in a role before applying for another position. Performance expectations are high, you better know your stuff, at least that's the way it was in my department.

Pros

Many high achieving, high performing, all-around good people.

Cons

Reorganizations are the norm, so people are in a constant state of uncertainty. Heavy workloads. Almost no work-life balance. Title-driven organization with too many layers.

Pros

You feel being part of a big, professional company engaged in a serious business. Innovative engineering.

Cons

Bloated staffing at all levels -- no less than 10 of them from the CEO down to an intern. Poorly managed vendors, from a GE / ABB caliber to a "disadvantaged" mom and pop shop. Big money wasted on duplicate efforts and dead-end projects.
