Pros

Great exposure to renewable energy field. Good internal business relationships across company.

Cons

Company needs to clean out middle management. O&M is completely covering up poor managers and new EVP is not making needed changes. Poor performing director level in Asset Optimization is kept with poor to limited business skills and is holding back employees who can excel to cover up their inadequacies.

Pros

Real opportunities to grow into more technical roles (Control Center Operator → Systems Engineer paths exist and aren't just on paper). You get hands-on experience with industrial systems most people only read about — OSI PI, SCADA, OMS integrations, cloud telemetry — which is hard to get elsewhere. Management generally supports continued education and certifications.

Cons

Decisions move slowly. Getting tooling, software, or process changes approved often involves multiple layers, including approvals that flow up to the French parent company. Procurement and IT requests can take weeks for things that would take a day at a smaller company. Some legacy systems and processes haven't been modernized — you'll find yourself working around quirks instead of fixing them.
