Pros

Attempting to lead the charge in green energy transitions.

Cons

Management beyond one level above knows nothing about the job I performed, never checked in. Clearly marked structure for promotions was not followed, promotions dangled in front of many instructors to keep us where we were. Management organization shuffled many times, clear influence of military experience as far as "the good old boys", favoritism, and unprofessional treatment of employees.

Pros

Standard methods, cloud infrastructure, and reliance on in house staff over contractors makes it very easy to implement safe, fast, consistent changes. You will be valued as a human and you will have a voice within this company. You can make a career here. Your coworkers and immediate leadership are all talented and intelligent individuals who actually know how to do the same work you are doing.

Cons

AI rollout and unevenly applied hybrid work made things difficult for employees with disabilities and those that lived far from office who had traditionally worked remote or for tasks that do not lend themselves well to AI overhead
