Pros

Good benefits package and wage rates. If you can make it longer than 5 years the benefits get better. They do offer a 6% 401K match which is above average. They offer vacation and sick time instead of PTO. 10 Company Holidays plus one personal Holiday.

Cons

Poor management, out-dated processes, impossible organizational structure, boys-club type environment. If you were not in the Navy you most likely will not fit in. Very strict sick time policy, Memorandum to file for 5 or more sick day in a rolling year. They preach an open door policy but become belligerent when you tell them things that are contrary to their perception. They do not value a degree, but require one for most positions. The hiring process can take months. They are only concerned with fixing safety issues that require little to no money to fix.

Pros

Good pay. Great benefits. Managers sometimes allow to work from home, but it depends upon the job.

Cons

Worse people to work with. Whole IT department is full of people who doesn't respect each other and if you are new or contingent worker, then just forget about the respect and your opinions. SCE is loosing great talent and good employees, only because some seniors and older people think they just own the company. And, they do not think about company's benefit, they think about feeding their ego and their authoritative nature.
