Pros

It's hard to get an I trial grasp on things but once you do, it's a good place to work. They promote internal employees pretty quickly, the pay is good if you negotiate up or are a contractor

Cons

Contractors make way more than internal employees a lot of the time

Pros

Stability, salary is competitive and bonus can be good

Cons

The decision to go to solar and wind only (carbon free) by 2050 is a horrible idea for both the company and the customers who ultimately have to pay for this!
