Skills are rapidly going away

Sap functional analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Certainly a stable company as it is a public utility.

Cons

Management in the technical areas is very poor, SAP experience is weak and business acumen is far blow average. This is not a good employer if you're not family related to someone in leadership, and those relationships seem to be everywhere. This is not a good employer if you are a woman either.

Avoid Customer Service

Customer service representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Stable company with decent benefits and good pay.

Cons

Leadership in Customer Service is terrible, they manage through fear, they over-control everything, there are multi-generational forces at play which make working here feel more like you're a member of a family, a very dysfunctional family. Leadership in Customer Service lacks integrity, and it shows daily in the ugliest ways. Avoid if you can.
