Pros

The compensation and benefits are very competitive. But they need to pay well because of the nature of the business. The company is going through a transitional period right now with many older employees either retiring or receiving packages to leave. May be a good time for younger employees to move up.

Cons

Boring work environment. Unfortunately, I don't work at the new corporate palace Westinghouse built in Cranberry, PA which is very nice. I work in a 43 yo mfg facility that is dull and outdated. The work is rather unexciting and the security makes you feel like you work at a prison sometimes. The business seems to be run on spreadsheets, managers have very little authority and the cafeteria is sub-par.

Pros

Engineering Salaries are competitive. Depending on the department, you are likely to get endless rewards despite poor performance.

Cons

Salaries for non-engineering positions are not competitive. Depending on the department, you are likely to be the only one working. If the rest of the people in your group do actually work, it's likely you'll never see a reward or acknowledgement. Westinghouse rewards work with more work.
