Pros

Good distribution of work load Respectful management LOTS of advancement opportunities Lots of training available Fringe benefits (education reimbursement, alternative work schedule, etc.) New HQ with good food, gym and other recreational amenities Great, competent and friendly coworkers

Cons

Management seems to be out of touch with business goals and means to achieve them. I'm not sure if the company can be viable in the future should nuclear energy become less desirable/in demand.

Pros

Nuclear Safety is an important and growing field. With all the room for improved utilization of their workforce someone could really make a name for themselves here in the Test department.

Cons

Westinghouse has much room for improvement in their management and scheduling of expertise and resources. They need to understand their workforce better and put the skills they have to better use.

Pros

Nice physical surroundings, good pay, good benefits. Plenty of training opportunities

Cons

Too many departments overseeing the same work, long hours expected, the level of productivity is low and it takes much too long for decisions and actions to be taken. Too much training required.
