Pros

Very good company culture. Most managers are easy to connect with and good leaders. The company spends a lot of effort making everyone feel included. NRG is pursuing interesting and innovative opportunities.

Cons

Company is strict about hybrid schedule. It seems unless you are invaluable to the company, you will not be offered remote work. Certain teams are hard to work with for this reason (they are all remote). HR is good but sometimes neglect to share timeline, left wondering when and what will happen.

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.
