Vantaggi

Not much anymore. It used to be a great company to work for until they moved their headquarters to Waltham. I worked for 25 years and it was great, the last two years before I quit were horrible. Good pay if you've worked there a long time

Svantaggi

Treated like you are a child by supervisors. Ridiculous codes to enter to account for every second that you have to be away from your desk which is highly discouraged anyways. Forget about talking to your fellow employees, if you have a conversation for more than 1 minute even if its about work, the supervisor is right there to ask if there is a problem. Everything you do is monitored which doesn't lead to good moral. Very little positive feedback, all you get is complaints about how much more you should be doing even though you are now doing the work three people used to do since half your department has either taken other jobs or quit. The pay is terrible for a new hire. During the last two years of my career I felt like I worked in a sweatshop.

Vantaggi

I cannot say enough about how great a company National Grid is. I’ve been here for over four years, and there is truly a culture where employees are encouraged to share their voices. The company regularly conducts surveys to understand how employees are feeling, what they need, and what matters to them... and then transparently shares the results with everyone. I have never experienced this level of openness with any other employer, and I know that none of my friends or family have had similar opportunities. It says a lot that so many employees want their family members to work here as well. Working at National Grid is more than just a job, it’s a lifestyle, and there is a strong sense of pride in being part of the organization. As a woman, I am proud to be part of this “brotherhood” and have never felt that this is a male‑dominated space. There are many opportunities across the company, from field operations to management, depending on your interests. Compensation is competitive and rewards both experience and performance. Remote and hybrid work are sometimes an option, which to me shows a level of trust and respect for employees. I only wish I had joined earlier in my career.

Svantaggi

I do wish there were more opportunities available in Western New York. Many roles seem to be concentrated in Central New York, Eastern New York, or downstate, and it would be great to see additional positions (for others to join the company) closer to home in WNY.
