Pros

- Comprehensive training for every employee, whether they have worked in the energy industry before or not. - Incomparable culture and support. - Ethically aligned to my values and morals. - Decent work benefits.

Cons

- Whilst learning opportunities are well supported, there is a lot to cover and it takes time, motivation and dedication. Its not a guarantee that every person will be the right fit. Employees must be resilient and well organised. - Growth within the company is possible for a while, but there is definitely a point where breaking past the ceiling requires a lot more work and ability to justify it. Its not necessarily a con, but its a consideration. - Large work load

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
