Great people but no job security.
Supervisor (Former Employee), Rosemead, CA – May 2, 2013
Pros: great benefit packages

I loved the work that I did and enjoyed working with my collegues. Unfortunately, no job security even when you are a high performing individual or loyal to the company.

comfortable work setting
Senior Engineer - Nuclear Fuel Management (NFM) (Former Employee), San Clemente, CA – April 11, 2013
Aside from the routine production work, a workday often included problem solving for unanticipated issues arising at the plant. It was quite a learning experience because one is exposed to many facets of engineering. However, Edison work process was extremely complicated and inefficient. Every simple task had an inordinate amount of paperwork associated – more... with it. – less

Worst job experience ever!
Project Manager (Former Employee), Rosemead, CA – April 10, 2013
Cons: worst job experience ever!
Constant, unorganized, not effective thought-out changes and reorganizations to tasks, reporting structures, departments, etc. Chaotic: extremely difficult to maintain composure and postive, enthusiastic attitude to get to work, keep job, etc. Toxic work environment; brown-nosing, intimidation; back-stabbing. Promotions, telecommuting, special allowances – more... not by earning them but by "who" you know. Old boys club mentality. Way behind technology or completely absent to foster efficiency and self-growth. Hypocrites - compay doesn't care about the 'person' only the bottom line. Extreme micro management to the point of suffocation. Performance appraisals are a joke - one-sided. Reporting retaliation, ethics violations, etc. to HR on numerous occassions went nowhere/presented no improvements or changes. – less

Tons of Company functions
Supervising Field Service Representative (Former Employee), Wildomar, CA – April 10, 2013
Pros: great pay and benefits
Cons: everything was pleasant
Go to group tailboard and discuss what the schedule is for the day, get appropriate tools and supplies. Head out to truck and get situated then proceed out to your route for the rest of the day. At the end of the work day you fill out your own timesheet and give to supervision.

Great place to work (awesome people, good compensation/benefits)
Senior Program/Project Analyst (Former Employee), La Palma, CA – April 4, 2013
Pros: good compensation/benefits, some great people to work with
Cons: roll-off of project team members could have gone more smoothly
I had the pleasure to work at SCE for six years. It was a great place to work. I learned a great deal about the Utilities industry. As with most companies, you will run into some great managers and some not-so-great managers. The company does a great job of helping guide you towards your desired career path if you are recently out of college.

Company in transition
Project Analyst, Business Customer Division (Current Employee), Edison, CA – April 1, 2013
SCE is currently in transition. Leadership is trying to modify the structure of bureaucracy and waste. Bad press and other ongoing challenges (such as the very costly San Onofre Nuclear Generator leak) are putting pressure on management to seek solutions.

Nice place to work if you can transfer around before another budget cut hits
Meter Reader (Former Employee), Covina, CA – March 27, 2013
pick up routes at office early in the morning, early on in job walk all routes within given timeframe. co-workers were friendly and out going. job was being eliminated and not many opportunities for advancement if you didn't want to become a groundman who is basically a glorified go-fer. management kept to themselves and didn't really look out for anyone – more... but themselves. However, they gave us our space and allowed us to get our work done. most enjoyable part was working outdoors and working alone, meeting people all over from all different walks of life – less

Good place to work
Maintenance Helper (Former Employee), CA – March 23, 2013
Everyone is willing to help you understand something if you need it. Tend to do just one job a day because it tends to take a while to get it cleared to be able to do it. Hardest part of job is the long work days since I had a hour drive one way that made my work days at least 12 hours and somethings during the outage 14 hours. Worked 4 to 6 days a – more... week and each day was at least 10 hours. Best part of the job was that it has a slower pace of doing work since it is a nuclear plant. – less
