Pros

High salaries and bonus potential. Some people who care are still trying to do good work and serve their community.

Cons

TVA took a wrong turn. Terrible professional culture if you aren’t a white male who rubs elbows with the right people. It’s a brutal environment where skills, hard work, and education don’t matter. People get cut, demoted, or shuffled in round after round of reorgs or reductions in force while the c-suite promotes their fraternity bros. CEO Jeff Lyash was good but he left and Don squeezed in and he is making everything worse. DEI is non-existent anymore. They don’t care about doing the right thing by their people or community. Sad. Considering a job here? Run away as fast as you can.
