Pros

National Grid is a great place to work if you care about your community. It feels good knowing the work we do actually helps the people and neighborhoods we live in. The company really focuses on doing the right thing as safety, reliability, and clean energy are big priorities. There’s a strong sense teamwork as people are willing to help each other out and work together to get things done. It’s also one of the few big companies still based in this area, so there’s a real sense of pride and stability in being part of something that’s been here so long.

Cons

Like any large company, things can sometimes move slowly. Communication between departments can be challenging, and some individuals may resist change or new ideas. However, the overall benefits often outweigh the drawbacks, especially if you value stability and a company that genuinely cares about its employees and the communities it serves.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
