Pros

Employees...they are the best part of working at FirstEnergy. The people you work with make the job. They have many talented, hard working people there but Management simply takes advantage of them and continually ask for more.

Cons

The expectation of management, at least within IT, can be quite high. If you are good at something they continually ask more of you and are unwilling to work with you to cross-train others so you can advance within the company.

Pros

FirstEnergy is a big company with a lot of growth that I've seen firsthand. Employees are helpful and all have the shared goals of keeping reliability of the electric grid. The pay is decent and stays competitive with the market rates as they do reviews consistently and evaluate. Its a great company that is trying to do better after misguided leads hip in the past

Cons

Some executive leadership vision is not shared with lower level employees. The recent transition from WFH back to the office has left employees such as myself wondering why its not role based WFH.

Terribly managed since Tierney and his cronies took the helm
