Pros

Duke Energy is a great company, with great benefits, pay and opportunities to advance and develop in your career for the company as a whole. Great job security.

Cons

-Brunswick Nuclear Plant has a management culture separate from the remainder of the company. -Brunswick Nuclear Plant management actively blocks employees from moving other parts of the business. -Engineering turnover is one of the highest in the nuclear industry. -Management conveys contradictory messages concerning maintaining the plant, equipment reliability, a strong nuclear safety culture; actions are different than words. -Engineering is consistently ignored by the decision makers in senior management, and blamed for equipment failures. Engineering management does little to defend engineers and the technical conscience engineering provides.
