City Light & Power, Inc.

CLP has perfected the art of avoiding customers requests while increasing their profit margins. They have under equipped, under manned, and under paid staff at multiple locations and wonder why they can’t hire anyone qualified. They will sell you the benefits of working for them like a used car salesman and refuse to acknowledge the reality of the working conditions once it has been made bluntly aware to them. 
City Light & Power needs to learn that their personal profit will not go as far as simply doing right by the employees they already have. Invest in your employees and their working conditions and they have reason to stay on, keeping their knowledge and relationships intact. 
For now I would say “Buyer beware”. Don’t take what you have been told or even what is included in your contract as to what is going to be executed. 
For union members, be aware that you classification with the IBEW is different under this employer and may affect your ability to pull a ticket from the hall. 
I believe that the crew you work with can make the greatest difference in your day to day but they shouldn’t create an environment where everyone regrets working for this company. 
This company has their flaws and I enjoy doing my job but anyone can slap their company name on a UP contract. How you handle your employees and their needs is what makes the difference. 
Employee performance will make this company successful and customers quiet. It will bring long term profits and reputation. 
My advice is to shift your focus from sucking as much money as you can from your customers to adequately equipping, staffing, and paying your employees. Admin, engineers, and line crews will make you thrive when they are all happy working for you and working together. 

All executive and upper management are related one way or another.  That's fine, but they all think they are smarter than the people working under them.  The truth is, upper management and executives are not smart, with exception to 2 people.  This company was handed down by the father of the current Co-Presidents, who I guess was a hard worker.  But now, all the relatives are driving this company down to the ground.  Mark my words, it's a matter of time before CLP goes out of business.  The federal government granted 50 year utility privatization contracts with CLP.  Everyone knows these contracts are unsustainable.  All government employees working with CLP are lazy and have no reason for living.  

One of the biggest takeaways from my time so far at City Light and Power Engineering is that the people you will work with care about what they do and want to help you grow and succeed. You will get out of this experience what you put into it and will be a part of a great team of people and join a company with a very strong future ahead. If you are someone who cares about doing what's right, being there for your co-workers, and are willing to apply yourself, CLP Engineering will be the perfect place for you

One rude and condescending person can really effect everyone's environment and attitude. Especially when you go to upper management and talk to multiple people and nothing is done about it.

The benefits are excellent, but the pay for the amount of work involved, (and the stress that went with it) at least on the accounting side, is not compensatory.

If you want to work in accounting, I suggest you look somewhere else. If you are an engineer, they will treat you like a rock star!!!

Song and dance about how they care about their employees. But it couldn't be further from the truth they will happily bait someone in with a high salary and the second they get a chance drop them even if they left a good career to come to that company. We do not care about people they only care about the bottom line and your life will probably be ruined if you work for this company. I couldn't be more clear you don't want to work here

A fast paced and team-oriented environment that allows for continued professional growth for those with the drive to self-perform and take initiative. The company has expanded in several areas and continues to have plenty of backlog of work ensuring reasonable job security with fair compensation and benefits. Upwards growth is expanding with the increasing clientele and work being pursued. 

My time at City, Light, and Power was a great experience. The work load was never anything you couldn't handle. Job security wasn't an issue. I never had a day where I did not have anything to do. My coworkers were outstanding, respectful, and helpful. The supervisors at CLP are fantastic. They treated me with respect and worked with me when I needed to attend personal matters. HR was always extremely helpful and attentive. Overall this is a great company to work for.

Best collabrative atmosphere I have been in in 25 years. Operates on management Y theory, listens and responds appropriately. Need something, ask and it is provided. Values employees as team members. Perform your duties and it is appreciated. No brow beating. I love coming to work and contributing to the organization.

This position as an Office Administrator was very short (5 days).  I was shown what was expected of me, and I was able to complete those tasks without much help.  There was hardly any supervision, as the project managers were always out on the field.
