Swissgrid Reviews

Pros

- Sense of purpose: maintain the electric grid up and running 24/7/365, for the benefit of the swiss economy. - Technical environment: high voltage substations with Gas Insulated Switchgear / Secondary Automation Systems / Transformers, with overhead lines or cables in between (requiring specialist construction skills). - Highly experienced colleagues from whom one can learn a great deal about all of the above on... a daily basis - Young company (10 years old) => a lot to be developed, to complement a lot already working well

Cons

Leadership culture (emotional reactions instead of proportionate responses), leading to fear across middle management
