Pros

Most positions are hybrid or Remote (other than critical in field roles) National Grid promotes a culture that supports work-life balance through flexible working options, allowing employees to manage their personal and professional lives effectively. The company has a strong set of values that guide its operations, and it actively recognizes employees for their contributions through various programs. This fosters a sense of belonging and appreciation The HR team has a supportive and collaborative work culture, where colleagues are willing to help each other and share knowledge

Cons

Vacation time is a little old school, and some policies can be a bit hard to effectively implement but other than that it is a great place to work

Pros

At NGED the few pros are lessened by the day as the cons are increasing. The idea of a career has gone and now most are resigned to just having a job.

Cons

Aside from the reality being very different from what the leadership team sell IE they don't care about people or net zero, it's all spin and marketing. Now at NGED we are in a situation where staff you have known for many years simply disappear from duty and no one seems to know why, a couple of weeks later they have left the business with an NDA. It's happening all over the business. There seems to be a drive to remove any leaders who have industry technical knowledge and replace them with people from outside the industry who knows little to nothing about electricity. Despite safe to say being an important value, speaking out against this usually results in an NDA. It's toxic positivity where playing along seems to be more important than the role you fulfil.
