Pros

Thousands of square feet of empty cubicles due to staffing reductions after mergers means that there is always plenty of free space.

Cons

Corporate management will claim that regional management is above reproach, and company policy requires openness and honesty. Thus, if one's regional manager creates a problem that you must address with them, you will be required to address it (lest you be dishonest or secretive), and then you will be fired (because management is above reproach).

Pros

FirstEnergy is a big company with a lot of growth that I've seen firsthand. Employees are helpful and all have the shared goals of keeping reliability of the electric grid. The pay is decent and stays competitive with the market rates as they do reviews consistently and evaluate. Its a great company that is trying to do better after misguided leads hip in the past

Cons

Some executive leadership vision is not shared with lower level employees. The recent transition from WFH back to the office has left employees such as myself wondering why its not role based WFH.

Great office work-group, both staffers and managers

Cons

As covid came upon us, sharing the time in-office was necessary but challenging however the team effort worked well so we could all get our required work done
