      What is working from home like at NRG Energy?

      NRG Energy reviews

      Great company

      Analyst
      Former employee

      Pros

      Training opportunities, culture, people, advancement.

      Cons

      No flexibility in work schedules other than some areas work from home

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Flexible, work from home, manager is not local.

      Cons

      The pay is awful, salary and especially commission is an absolute joke. No incentives, and most of the people that work there were highly uneducated. Anyone could work this job, you do not need any skill set whatsoever. It was embarrassing what poor grammar my "managers" exercised.

      Not a good place to work at

      Senior copywriter
      Current employee

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      The job pays well, at least my position does. Could be worse, I guess.

      Cons

      Lots of nepotism and favoritism, if you are liked, you will get hired and promoted in no time even if you have no idea what you are doing. Lots of people get passed for promotion because they just do their job and don’t go to happy hour or socialize all the time. Horrible management team, lots of people who have no management experience and protect their friends from consequences. Work load is distributed similarly, if you are liked, you get less work. Some people get to work from home full time and others only get 2 days WFH. It really depends on your manager and if they like you. I would not recommend working there unless you like working in chaos with no structure or well defined process. Everyone just does what they want and refuse to learn a new process because they are dinosaurs and lazy.
