Pros

Good benefits, time off and flexibiltiy are the best assets of this company. Pay is above average for position type in Amarillo.

Cons

Can be difficult to progress as some departments tend to form groups and don't look as potential. Instead they look at is this person a friend and are they part of us...Should be based on qualifications only.

Pros

Good CEO, good co-workers, industry leading utility, and wide geographical footprint that provides experience that other utilities can't provide.

Cons

Long hours, lower than average wages, HR runs the salary increases so there is more value on years experience rather than performance. This causes the younger high performers to be held back in career advancement.
