By far the best company I have worked for so far

Pros

They give you space to grow professionally. You can easily move between different areas in the company. Freedom to develop your own ideas. Very good life and work balance. Company is in a growing sector.

Cons

As with any large company, certain things are overly bureaucratic which can sometimes be frustrating. After years of slow business, the company is now growing fast and as such is experiencing some teething problems.

Definitely one of the best places to intern while in school.

Pros

If you can somehow land an internship at Westinghouse, I strongly advise you take it. Not only is there great pay (some of my peers are working longer, harder hours and getting nothing), but they give you a chance to learn some very interesting things about a unique field.

Cons

Westinghouse is a very "corporate" place to work. They follow everything by the book and give little room for creativity. This is a rather small complain and they really cannot do a whole lot about it due to the highly regulated nuclear industry.

Old school company that still has the mentality of a large company, even though its much smaller now

Pros

If you are looking to learn, there are a lot of opportunities to immerse yourself in some very interesting projects. Great health benefits also.

Cons

Westinghouse believes that age is a measure of ability; nothing is further from the truth.
