Vantaggi

Honestly can't think of one pro from working here.

Svantaggi

Was told conflicting information every other day pertaining to "what is expected of you and your performance." First it was "this is NOT a sales position. You'll be providing customer service and assisting customers with their routine account needs." Next, in training was informed that we "must offer their non-regulated products & services on every eligible call." Then we're told via e-mail what our "sales goals" are for each month on the products/services we were previously told all we had to do was "offer." As I stated to management when I was reprimanded for "not offering/selling their products, I don't think an elderly customer who clearly has memory troubles should be someone I'm offering to as they could barely remember their SS or DOB. Still, was told those are "eligible" calls and should be offering/selling to the customer. Not to mention, why are we required to offer products for customer during inflation and people are having a hard time already without the "added charge" on their bill. This place is beyond ridiculous with their horrible business practices and what they expect from their employees.

Vantaggi

Strong job stability in a regulated utility environment, along with competitive pay and solid benefits package. My immediate team is genuinely supportive and collaborative — we work well together and have each other's backs. The work itself offers a sense of purpose given the essential nature of the industry.

Svantaggi

Upper management operates with limited transparency and decisions flow strictly top-down, with little visibility into the reasoning behind strategic choices. The compensation structure does not differentiate for high performers — annual raises tend to land at or below inflation. Work groups across the department are heavily siloed, which limits cross-functional collaboration and slows knowledge sharing and adds frustration.
