Pros

Good benefits. Some of the more senior managers still bring a wealth of knowledge in combination with treating their subordinates with respect.

Cons

The company's commitment to cutting costs is undermining the hard work and dedication of its employees. Also, the overboard focus on safety has gotten out of hand and it seems like that's all we talk about in meetings and briefings. That's fine when you work in the field or at a manufacturing company, be we work in an office. The company is creating an environment where people throw other employees under the bus to make themselves look good. Its very hard to trust anyone anymore, from senior executives all the way down to co-workers. It's sad really, because when I first got a job at SCE I was very proud and excited. Now I can't wait to move on and find something better. Somewhere where the employees are important to the company - it used to be like that, not anymore.

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

Pay, they pay very well. Interesting work and SOME very sharp people.

Cons

The department I was in was very toxic. Company claims to be values based but that is a joke. The "leaders" in my OU were abusive and have been reported to HR multiple times by many people. Nothing was ever done. The entire company isn't toxic, its too bad that some of the areas are.
