Several Construction managers including the director, one portfolio team lead and construction coordinator lead practice with questionable ethics. Loyalty and devotion mean nothing to them. If you are considering a construction position be aware Even when one has never had a negative review (ever) that not only will they show u the door as damage control because they can’t manage their O&M Budget but they’ll cry poor performance to avoid industry standards severance. From that perspective the company managers should collectively be ashamed. to avoid the ethically cGood people but too many

A typical day for me was being responsible for transmission line drawing control.  This included monitoring and fulfilling drawing check-out / check-in requests from outside consulting firms and ATC personnel for approved drawing check-in requests from ATC Engineering Specialists. I was able to learn the high voltage electrical field and various computer programs that pertain to this field. Management and co-workers at ATC was very impressive and very easy to work with.  The hardest part of this position was the constant work flow presented to me daily in which I embraced with enthusiasm. The most enjoyable part of this job was making all of my customers and stakeholders very happy which intern made me very proud of what I was doing daily. A complete sense of satisfaction.  Due to a company wide re-organization, my position was made to be automated instead of manual.  All in all, ATC was a great place to work and i value all of the knowledge and experience I gained there.

ATC was a new Transmission Only Utility in Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan. I enjoyed being a part of the team that set up the company for future generations.  When I started we had very little written procedures or guidelines on how to run a transmission only company.  We had to learn on the fly a we upgraded and provided interconnection services to Wisconsin and Michigan utilities, large customers and grid inter ties with neighboring states.  You never knew what each day would bring and you had to be flexible and have a general understanding of the entire utility business in order to get work, projects and problems resolved to keep the light on.  I enjoyed the varied problems and challenges that came up each day. I was  very effective in balancing the unique relationship we have with our customer as owner, contractor and customer.

Your experience at American Transmission Company will only be as good as your manager. Unfortunately, there is a poor leadership structure here that does little to coach or improve management. If their boss likes them, and if they have good people beneath them providing results, a poor manager will keep that role no matter how unhappy their employees are.

This is a good place for a new graduate as there are good individuals who want to provide good service, but after a few years it's best to move on as there are few opportunities to innovate as change comes down from the top not up from the bottom.

ATC is a very good company to work for. They allow plenty of time for work life balance. They place an emphasis on healthy living and family every day. They pay very well as well. Management places an emphasis on working together to accomplish goals. Teams actually share the workloads rather than expect that somebody else should do it. The blame game is not common there either. Anybody will try to solve the issue rather than say, "I didn't do it, so why should I fix it?"

During my tenure I found ATC to be successful with its work/life balance.  The culture was pleasant. However, the forward looking economy for the company is straining this environment. I have concerns as to how this will evolve and the level of talent ATC can draw to the company.

Best JOB I ever had but the senior management is way behind the times for being true leaders for team and personnel development.  Very poorly skilled senior managers.  Worse part is they think they are good and live the "not invented here" mentality, yet their results are poor.

good company with a caring atmosphere where everyone has a job to do and will help out where needed if needed.  management listens to employees and generally implements ideas that are put forth, will listen to them and consider them honestly at least.

As part of recent budget cuts and restructuring, my job position was eliminated at ATC. I would still recommend it as a good place to work. The people are fantastic to work with and I was given the opportunity to develop my communication and technical writing skills.

Slowly dying  on the vine.   Management just looking to hang on to retirement.  Everyone else acts like crabs in a bucket.   Fine place if you are looking to work for a couple of years before you retire, or only plan on staying a couple of years.
