Vantaggi

Great employee benefits (vacation, 401k, health, etc). Very flexible work hours (start anytime - work 8 hours - leave), and great coworkers

Svantaggi

Terrible management. Lack of mentorship from upper management can and will hinder career development. Managers cannot give the same attention to their employees when they operate in a different state. No effort for team building and nobody feels proud working for National Grid. Salaries for new hires surpass 8+ year employees with the same title, a major blow to morale. Company failed to implement SAP correctly, delaying the much needed rate case, thus, no raises. Feels unfair for the UK side to receive raises. P4G rating system is flawed and does not promote teamwork. Odds are against you when working with multiple departments. Each group has their own "metrics" and "goals" to fulfill and takes precedence over anything else.

Vantaggi

At NGED the few pros are lessened by the day as the cons are increasing. The idea of a career has gone and now most are resigned to just having a job.

Svantaggi

Aside from the reality being very different from what the leadership team sell IE they don't care about people or net zero, it's all spin and marketing. Now at NGED we are in a situation where staff you have known for many years simply disappear from duty and no one seems to know why, a couple of weeks later they have left the business with an NDA. It's happening all over the business. There seems to be a drive to remove any leaders who have industry technical knowledge and replace them with people from outside the industry who knows little to nothing about electricity. Despite safe to say being an important value, speaking out against this usually results in an NDA. It's toxic positivity where playing along seems to be more important than the role you fulfil.
