Customer Service Representative (Current Employee), Charlotte, NC – April 10, 2012
Duke Energy is a great place to work because i'm able to help others with solving problems they may have with their billing issues or help with getting their service started for their new home.
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Cincinnati, OH – March 29, 2012
Pros: everyone was equally fun and easy to work with
Cons: unexcused absence policies
The pay was great compared to what i made at my previous job. WE could get a lot accomplished but it could get really loud at times. When unexpected situations come about such as sickness of myself or my child, management was not understanding of that at all. Also our call center was not vintalated so that caused a lot of drifting sickness throughout – more... the center and it's occupants for the winter months. – less
Enjoyable work environment which taught me great work skills.
Electrician A (Former Employee), Greensboro, NC – March 26, 2012
Duke Energy was an excellent company for which to work. I learned many skills in high-voltage maintenance of electrical service equipment. I found my job interesting and enjoyable and was able to work in a shop environment and in outside service field environments (North Wilksboro, NC to Durham, NC). I worked with dedicated co-workers and management – more... always trained us well in our job skills. We also had excellent management trainining on teamwork and safety which was continually ongoing. The hardest part of the job was enduring the elements outside at electrical substations during extreme weather conditions (sub-freezing temps. during winter and extreme heat during summer). The most enjoyable part of the job was repairing and solving mechanical problems on circuit breakers and seeing the finished product that I had accomplished - along with the knowledge that I was providing a critical service to the public (electricity), and that gave me a sense of pride in my work. – less
