Pros

Very flexible for family and work balance is good overall and co-workers are very supportive of each other. I think it is a great place to work if you have children as they are very compassionate about family situations and the benifits are very good also. I am sure not every department is the same but the department I was in really impressed me and although I have just moved away and had to end my employment I miss the job itself along with many of the very wonderful people who worked there. Great job to Jonathan May for being an excellent manager.

Cons

Not much recognition for jobs well done from the immediate supervisor. That would be my only complaint really. Besides the fact that there is a lot of management employee relationships/ marriages that I think affect job performances sometimes. People who are not managers tend to think if they are dating one of the managers that gives them managerial rights and although this is not the case it is not handled very well by management and not stopped. A shame because this could be a perfect place to work but this is a big problem and needs to be taken care of.

Pros

One of the best reasons to work for Energy would have to be the opportunity to move within the company, given good performance reviews and fulfillment of certain time restrictions.

Cons

After a while, your role seems to morph into what could be two full time jobs, 40 hour weeks dont seem to give you enough time to resolve complex issues, especially when you are on conference calls for 4 hours a day...

Pros

Awesome, diverse group of businesses translates into incredible career opportunities. The performance review process is very transparent, and this is a very fair way to determine career advancement.

Cons

They are very cost conscious, so if you are into lavish and excessive events you won't find them here. The office locations are mostly outside of the glamorous big cities, but within commuting distance. Work here is more about business than having fun.
