Pros

Well i was lucky enough to run scotland for the Indirect Operations of NRG, we had a fantastic team who looked after each other, we fed from one and other and most of all we hit our targets and i also had some fantastic dealers in Scotland

Cons

the only con would have been lack of tech support in the scottish region and the fact our board in Japan were working from figures and not really getting a foothold on the economic downturn that Britain was heading into at that time!!!

Pros

The advantages working at NRG were that they have a 401K plan (on which they offer a match), HSA, health insurance plans, and a decent time off period. Leadership listens to the employees and always promote team mentality, cross training and, cross collaboration.

Cons

It really is a good company to work for and in hindsight, should have just stayed there.

Pros

Variety of projects, opportunities to collaborate across teams, and exposure to different areas of the business.

Cons

Frequent leadership turnover creates constant shifts in priorities and makes it difficult to maintain long-term direction (I had eight different managers over seven years). Annual layoffs, often occurring around January, contribute to ongoing uncertainty and low morale. Many employees perceive the layoffs as happening in smaller rounds, which adds to the sense that job security is unpredictable. The culture can also feel cliquish, and your experience depends heavily on your manager; some teams foster collaboration, while others are more micromanagement-driven and less receptive to differing viewpoints.
