Pros

Good pay, good benefits. Good co-corkers and direct supervisors.

Cons

Unfortunately, the current executive leadership is tanking the company. What was once a great place to work, that valued flexibility and work life balance, now feels like the exact opposite. There is no transparency. From sudden lay offs, to sudden return to office mandates with no reasoning other than “they feel we are better together”. Employees are leaving left & right now. Top talent continually departing the company.

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.
