Pros

Good pay and benefits compared to other jobs in Tucson, but no overtime compared to most power plants. It seems as though upper management is trying to change the culture, however it is happenning very slow (maybe in 20 years). Good place to get experience since most things are not automated and have to be done manually.

Cons

If you want to do well and are self motivated, you can expect to be bullied. Many people here (operations) don't want to do much, if you're different then expect to be treated as an outsider and have information withheld from you. Most operators don't have any prior formal power plant education, if you do, people seem to be intimidated by it. Best advice is just keep it to yourself. Overtime is also very limited compared to other plants (almost non-existent).

Pros

TEP is very flexible with its schedule, allowing interns to focus on school and take time off work when needed. My direct managers/supervisors were super knowledgeable and helpful whenever I needed help; my team was amazing.

Cons

There's a lot of management that gets in the way of getting actual work done. Sometimes, you'll look around and question what everyone actually does, and at times, you will feel as if nothing ever gets done. Pay is on the lower side for engineering interns.
