Pros

Nice new office, free coffee, summer hours, decent tele-commuting policy if your boss supports that. Seems to be a good group of people that work there, people passionate about renewable energy and trying to make a difference.

Cons

Very old-fashioned recruiting, very slow and disorganized hiring process, lack of onboarding, matrix style reporting relationships and Enel's Global policies cripple North American operations with their complexity and lack of applicability in the US. Seems to be an overabundance of people in Engineering & Construction and not in the departments that ultimately end up with an operational site (Operation & Maintenance, Safety, Procurement) Very outdated policies and benefit allowances/ contributions on 401k (hardly a match) vacation (starts people @ 2 or 3 weeks) / sick / PTO / Maternity. Laughable to companies like Google, Netflix, Facebook, etc. Very limited job potential as many positions are magically filled with Italian people from HQ who are trying to progress in their careers, limiting mobility within, even laterally. There is a HUGE nepotism issue at the US location. Some people are NOT competent, or qualified for the positions they fill, and they occupy a position based on who their spouse is.

Pros

I was able to work Remotely and the team were so welcoming and understanding.

Cons

That I came in as a contractor rather than a full time employee under Enel. I only got paid hourly with no benefits
