Plant Technician - Maintenance Level 3 in Dickerson, MD
on April 22, 2018
Work environment is an okay place to work. You are challenged from day to day with different tasks preformed throughout the plant. I recommend this employer.
Intern in Houston, TX
on November 17, 2023
Had a wonderful internship experience, I really felt like I could own a project and my work was respected even though I was an intern. I did a lot and found everyone very eager to help and share advice in coffee chats, but it felt a bit too slow for me since it's a very family-feel environment.

I worked there for 10yrs. It was ok. Started in customer service and moved around to a back office department. Was stuck from there. Lots of office politics
Analyst in Houston, TX
on October 10, 2023
Benefits/ people was great! 15 years of service no complaints. Raises every year, a long with bonus. Managers are pretty good and the company was real informative.
Supervisor in Houston, TX
on October 5, 2023
Decent pay. Work wasn't too difficult. It was a family environment. Even more so when it was Reliant Energy. Good incentives for enrolling new customers.
