Pros

You get paid every other Friday.

Cons

I have just watch another large blood bath of layoffs in a faction of the finance department. Employees with advanced degrees and thirty plus years of service were let go. Some employees with no degrees and thirty plus years of service who I saw come in on the weekends and holidays ( No overtime pay)were kicked to the curb. SCE is bringing in workers from India but the new employees are at a higher educational level and skill set but get less money. Of course SCE does not have to pay the new people benefits and retirement so more money in the pockets of the overpaid CEO and board members . I was told that some employment Attorneys are licking their chops to get involved in some of the breaches in the lay off procedures . It seems that some of the laid off employees are getting cheated out of some money that they are due ! The apparent rational for this latest round of layoffs is that SCE looked at other utilities as a bench mark to dictate how to run the company without looking to what was already on the property as far as talent and dedication was concerned.

Pros

SCE offers strong perks, benefits, and opportunities, especially within Field Engineering. There are plenty of chances to learn, grow, and be creative in the role. Leadership and management have generally been supportive, and the pay is solid for the expectations of the position.

Cons

Compensation is good if you perform the core job well, but it may not fully reflect the value of employees who go above and beyond, bring additional technical skills, or create broader impact beyond the standard role expectations.

Pros

Great company to work for in terms of mission, workplace, people, and pay & benefits. Lots of opportunities to grow & learn new things in different areas because of the size of the company.

Cons

Sometimes slow momentum of an enterprise company, but things are getting better.
