Pros

The company pays very well, especially for the work that is asked to do at varying levels. Jobs will allow for a good work-life balance.

Cons

The culture is very bureaucratic and could benefit from change, especially in creating a flatter organization. The energy industry is experiencing a paradigm shift and the average approval process must currently go through 3-5 managers before getting anything done. This slows down the process and does not allow for much decision-making, even at mid-level management.

Pros

SCE offers strong perks, benefits, and opportunities, especially within Field Engineering. There are plenty of chances to learn, grow, and be creative in the role. Leadership and management have generally been supportive, and the pay is solid for the expectations of the position.

Cons

Compensation is good if you perform the core job well, but it may not fully reflect the value of employees who go above and beyond, bring additional technical skills, or create broader impact beyond the standard role expectations.

Pros

Pay, they pay very well. Interesting work and SOME very sharp people.

Cons

The department I was in was very toxic. Company claims to be values based but that is a joke. The "leaders" in my OU were abusive and have been reported to HR multiple times by many people. Nothing was ever done. The entire company isn't toxic, its too bad that some of the areas are.
