Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Communication being open with employees
Gives me the latitude to pursue what I want to without too much intervention.
Transparent and willing to answer my questions
Progressive leadership that appears (and takes action) to genuinely embrace doing the right thing (controlling/preventing COVID in the workplace; responding to public concerns regarding wildfire risks, power shut offs, service, and costs, etc.
Great atmosphere, people are always willing to help!
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Care about people who support your organization.
Really evaluate the middle management.
Review from Operations Dept
Since my employment ended in 2002 I cannot comment on current changes, but While employed I was injured and upon returning was passed over a promotion to full-time
The leadership team should value people.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Awsome company to work for
Pension plan and 401k with 6% matching.
Health benefits were decent, but the company does not offer equity like all modern companies do.
Review from Operations Dept
Good incentives and great hourly wage benefits.
I get a bonus every year.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
As a field worker and represented employee, Local 47. The union has lost ground since the '70's when they signed a, "will not strike" rule. Really?
Review from Operations Dept
Vacation time and accruals diminishing and retirement contributions eroding.
I never was compensated, instead I made a complaint about being passed and ultimately received a recorded phone call notifying me my employment has ended
My level of pay is not commensurate with the responsibility assigned to me. I would feel better if I were paid at or above the level of those in the company with similar responsibility.
Generally speaking pay is far below like positions at other companies.
What are some of the best things about your team?
On time, follow a pattern, good leadership
Review from Operations Dept
Team members care but are not heard by senior management. The military cares about people more.
Good teamwork and collaboration. Everyone gets along and supports one another.
goal oriented and takes accountability for their actions
Most team members were friendly.
Review from Operations Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Most co-workers are conscientious. Since we are union, it takes alot of screwing up to be fired. However, eventually those workers have been fired. Yet, at the expense of the reputation of those who reported their offenses. "That would be me".
Review from Operations Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Open helpful follow rules share info
Review from Operations Dept
The 2nd supervisor was extremely helpful and interacting with the employees
Leaders are finally "owning" and embracing a safety focused culture.
Everybody is kind and gets along. We but each other snacks and lunch occasionally.
Great co workers that care about each other
Review from Operations Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Follow the company's posted values. Since COVID there have been several violations agains company values. Do as I say, not as I do. Justifying invasion of privacy because of safety. The company, SCE and its leadership manipulate safety to satisfy their bottom line. Beancounters rule.
Review from Operations Dept
Care about your staff members and treat them like human beings.
Grudge-holding middle managers need to be removed or put in positions that do not have direct reports. Too many middle managers do not know how to manage and are applying and getting management jobs for the "raise".
Review from Operations Dept
From the top down leadership should care more about there employees and less on their personal goals.
Everyone is scared of being let go and leadership does not take accountability for their failures
What did you like most about the interview process?
Panel interview saves time for external candidates and provides for greater collaboration for interviewers.
It was an average experience.
Review from Operations Dept
That I got the job.
We really delve deep into the mindset of the one questioned with deep insight questions.
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
If you are part of the, "clicK" you are in...... good luck.
Review from Operations Dept
Focus less on the abstract hypothetical situational interview questions and place greater value on actual demonstrated abilities and experiences.
What makes you most happy at work?
The end of the shift and going home.
Review from Operations Dept
opportunity to be myself and provide input based on my experiences personally and professionally
Getting interesting and important projects successfully completed.
Getting more work done to advance the company and our profits.
I meet my coworkers and enjoy helping my customers.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Leadership has gone down hill for the past 15 years. Customers service is not a focus.
Gut the old ways of thinking out and openly evolve into a more pisitive and helpful place to be an employee
Better understanding of our department so that it can be managed better from a higher level. Right now everything finds its way to our department.
