Pros

Paragon is a great place to learn about power plant components and earn career experience. The salary and bonus structure are generous, but the other benefits are nothing special. Direct management is flexible if your personal situation requires you to work remotely on occasion or leave early for an appointment.

Cons

The 401k match is only half of the 6% that you have to contribute. Health insurance is far below industry average. Expect to pay your out of pocket max for any major medical expense. There is no sick time allowance and allotted PTO time is below industry average. The CEO and other upper management are not receptive to feedback from employees on how to improve company culture and make drastic organizational changes on a whim. Finger pointing between departments is commonplace.

Pros

SOME of the employees are ok. Management, not so much.

Cons

This place is a joke. If you are not in the "management clique" then forget about this place and avoid it. Managers have no clue what they are doing and that goes all the way to the top including the COO and CEO. If you can't see how fake they are with their "we care about the employees" and we are "paragonians" then you need to wake up. They don't. Best way to describe management is unqualified, living in the 80-90's management style, with no real plan. The work is mundane, not very inspiring or intellectually challenging, and decades old technology. If you want to live in the 60's and 70's this is the place for you. If you want to live anywhere near the 2000's avoid this place at all costs.

Pros

Immediate peers, ability to learn and grow in the nuclear industry, 9/80 work schedule

Cons

They don’t listen to what they preach regarding having a questioning attitude. One sided management system. Deaf ears.
