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.
Pays well, especially storm duty. More "relaxed" than other places for work.
Cons
Lineman Union run, which creates a lot of tension between design and lineman. Design not represented. A lot of people who stay who don't have a good work ethic. CEO is terrible.
