Pros

None at all. Benefits are okay. There is minimal work life balance. Employee resource groups are good ways to network and meet people. Coworkers are friendly and nice. Corporate office is decent, with a gym and cafeteria.

Cons

None at all. Employer does not value diversity of opinions, ideas or ways of work working. Workforce is older, and slow to change. Millenials are cast aside and not given a voice. Minorities are marginalized, and it feels like the South from the 1960's. Culture is very formal, and staff only interact with direct managers, not those higher up. Workers are supposed to be in the office all day, keep their head down, do the work, and "punch out." Telecommuting or flexible work formats are not offered nor encouraged. training opportunities are very minimal.

Pros

Due to my experience, I don't have many positive things to say.

Cons

Management was not good in this headquarters. I was not very fond of the treatment that the supervisors had towards their contracted employees. I graduated with a high GPA from university and know how to learn. In my first role as a distribution engineer, there wasn't any concrete training available to learn how to start and finish a project from start to finish. I would often reach out to get clarification on many concepts I was unfamiliar with and the feedback I received seemed to be too "exhaustive" for my supervisor to explain. Not only that, but when I sent my jobs for review with the small amount of guidance given, they would belittle my designs due to my lack of knowledge that they chose not to reinforce. In my contracted position, the supervisor over me at Georgia Power held the decision for extending contracts for the contractors. I asked twice if my contract was to be extended in order for me to make adequate plans moving forward should my contract not be extended. Both times that I asked for confirmation, I was told that my contract was going to be extended. However, it wasn't until 5 days that my contract would expire that the supervisor told me that they decided to not extend my contract. It was a humiliating and frustrating experience. I expected more from this company and the people they have placed in positions of power.
