Pros

-Pay is significantly higher than other industries for comparable work -Benefits are generous with 401K match -Work-life balance is generally very good -Hybrid schedule; most departments only 2 days per week in the office

Cons

-Limited opportunities for career advancement unless you actively find other roles within the company; I was promoted 3 times in 13 years but had to apply, interview, and be selected for each role -Frequent and ongoing layoffs every 5 years due to overhiring and inefficient processes; layoff decisions are arbitrary and not based on actual performance

Pros

SCE offers strong perks, benefits, and opportunities, especially within Field Engineering. There are plenty of chances to learn, grow, and be creative in the role. Leadership and management have generally been supportive, and the pay is solid for the expectations of the position.

Cons

Compensation is good if you perform the core job well, but it may not fully reflect the value of employees who go above and beyond, bring additional technical skills, or create broader impact beyond the standard role expectations.

Pros

Pay, they pay very well. Interesting work and SOME very sharp people.

Cons

The department I was in was very toxic. Company claims to be values based but that is a joke. The "leaders" in my OU were abusive and have been reported to HR multiple times by many people. Nothing was ever done. The entire company isn't toxic, its too bad that some of the areas are.
