Pros

The culture and focus on delivering for our customers shine through as core components that makes National Grid a great place to work. There is a collaborative team environment where coworkers are helpful, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. There's also a strong focus on safety and clear protocols that make you feel supported on the job. National Grid provides great job stability; the company is reliable and long term focused with supportive leadership that is approachable and genuinely cares about employees. There are opportunities for growth and internal promotions with clear career paths.

Cons

Weather events require all hands-on deck which can disrupt the work life balance, but this should be expected working in the utility industry.

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.
