"Company is seriously downsizing, so STAY AWAY"

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookI have been working at Ontario Power Generation full-time
Pros
High salary and pension (but won't last)
Cons
Company is seriously downsizing, so there will be many jobs to shed and no future. Very nuclear culture, so all focus is mainly on that area. Offices are jail like.
Most decisions are made at highest levels, and most employees get excluded and not empowered.Advice to Management
Be truthful about the future of the company and don't give false hopes and information. Be respectful and transparent to employees.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookDisapproves of CEOI worked at Ontario Power Generation (More than 10 years)
Pros
Good salaries
Benefits
Somehow good job securityCons
Get first-hand information about the company, working practices, careers and management from people working there. Some of the reviews that are written here are biased and untrue. Speak with people inside the company and you’ll find out that a lot of things they are not what they seem to be.
Consider the limitations of having job experience in a dying industry.
Read about government audits performed on the company.Advice to Management
No point
