Secure in uncertain times

Union (Current Employee) - Plainfield, NJ - May 8, 2022

Although the direction at corporate is questionable. The situation on the ground is different and fulfilling. In a country that is collapsing due to politics and hyperinflation being in a utility gives a sense of security and relief

A once great company.

Lineman (Current Employee) - New Jersey - April 30, 2022

What was once a great company is now a company who cares more about it's reliability awards than it's employees. They preach safely is their number one goal but will have managers who have never worked a day in the tools tell you what to do while disregarding the same rules that they create to discipline you. Many employees see the writing on the wall and are leaving for other companies who used to be considered inferior. Nothing short of 180 will save this company.

Pros

none

Cons

No management.

Great place to work

Senior EHS Compliance Analyst (Former Employee) - Newark, NJ - March 22, 2022

Some of the best people I ever worked with. The company always tried to keep people at the core of their policies, but it is a business that accountable to its share holders first.

Pros

Great people

Cons

Company bureaucrats are your typical executives not the nicest people.

Solution Architect (Current Employee) - Bethpage, NY - March 18, 2022

Great stepping stone and resume builder nothing more. Upper management doesn’t care about you and they work you so hard you don’t have time to increase the skills you want to improve.

The utility model creates dysfunctional managers

Associate Program Support Manager (Former Employee) - Newark, NJ - November 3, 2021

The utility model is one where public funds are thrown at the utility and success is defined as spending the money with nothing left over. Due to this, the compensation is very good. However, the responsibility to perform is not there. There are no consequences for mismanagement and waste. Because of this, you have managers who have spent their entire working life in this alternate reality and are completely out of touch with how business is run. Change is anathema and mediocrity is what they strive for. The environment is dog eat dog. If you want excellent pay with very little actual production or responsibility, this utility is for you. It is possible to survive if you keep your head down. If you have self-respect, eventually you will leave.
