Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at AltaGas full-time for more than 8 years
Pros
stock pays good dividend and vacation entitlement is decent
Cons
Not a respectful workplace. Management is selfish, not looking after employee's career or compensation. They only care their own pay and future.
Advice to Management
Executives promote too many unqualified buddies to be their SVP/VP (some even without decent university education or industry designation). It reflects poorly on company's leadership vision and staff quality.

Pros
Great location, generally good morale and lots of changes / new projects to work on

Upper management went through many major changes and projects would sometimes get benched. No vision or common goal during this time for everyone to align to.

Pros
Great benefits, extra days off, decent people to work with at lower levels.
Cons
Company isn't what it was a few years ago. Lack of leadership by management is quite evident, especially with new projects. Many frustrated, qualified employees leaving for better opportunities. Salary is well below industry standards.
Advice to Management
Too many new projects and not enough qualified staff to deliver them. Listen to your employees at the lower levels. Refocus the direction of the company.

Pros
Progressive company. Power, utilities, oil and gas. Good benefits
Cons
Run by operations, preferred to hire inexperienced engineers and train. Then once the had some experience they would leave for a better job. So the lack of experience made the job challenging do to some poor decision making.
