Luminant

Days there are very busy yet very productive. The people there are rude though alot of times and arrogant and are hard to talk to or communicate well with and alot of them dont speak much english which makes things harder because every one of my coworkers are hispanic and even the ones that know english dont even speak it around me out of respect so its hard to learn anything at work and have to just flow with it because they refuse to communicate well with me. I learn alot there like scaffolding, insulation, and working with metal. The place is well managed but sometimes the main bosses can get a little overwhelming even when everyone is trying their best the boss's will probably find something to talk down to you about because you have to know you're below them. The hardest part of the job is probably all of the complaining and lack of communication. The best part of the job is being so hands on and learning so many new things.

overall its a good job, I work with a lot of different people with a lot of different interest,likes and hobbies. A typical day is one it's always loud if the units are online and there is always equipment to check (oil levels,heat, vibrations etc). Management are really just like the rest of us everyone is on a first name basis and they genuinely care for all our safety and well being. Our work culture is one of team work and having each others backs (assisting on LOTOs, PMs, clean ups and everyday task).The hardest part of the job is usually the heat but during heavy downpours of rain pluggage can be an issue.The most enjoyable part of the job is the camaraderie amoung co-worker

Typical day at work was to provide administrative assistance to Sr. VP and staff  of up to 150 employees in the energy business,  Responsibilities included, telephone reception, typing of correspondence, preparation of expense reports, invoices, copying, faxing, preparation of travel arrangements for executives, coordination of meetings, catering and event planning.  

As part of the administrative staff supporting such a large group I learned the value of team work and the role it played for us to provide our staff the service they required to get their job done, effectively and efficiently.

Good people to work with, 1958 technology

A typical day at work - Technical departmental meeting with 14 FTEs (I&C technicians) and contractors; Safety topics, daily work orders/PMs, day/evening shift and training schedules update. Scheduler/Planner discussions, Operations and Maintenance update meetings. Consistent learning process day to day; working with various departments and management personnel. Perhaps the hardest part of my job with trying to get good communication from other departments in order to analyze various plant systems. I have always enjoyed the power plant work in I&C or training development. To me it's fun!

Luminant is a good company with a lot of great people. The work life balance is better than most other nuclear power plants (work 4 ten hour days, get most weekends off including Friday). Overall the environment is supportive toward safety, quality work, and using HU tools to make improvements.

Pay and other compensation is pretty good. Work is steady without too many headaches or crisis events.

I would recommend Luminant (Comanche Peak) to anyone seeking employment in this area.

Overall Luminant was a very good place to work. It was almost always very loud, in the summer it was very hot and dusty, in the winter it could be very stressful due to freezing weather. And it was almost always a dangerous place to work because of the high pressure steam, high pressure water, explosion hazards due to combustible dust, very high RPM motors and steam driven equipment, along with the ever present electrical shock hazards. But overall it was a great place to work.

The work is very challenging. However, the company provides all the help you need to get the work done. The company is amazingly filled with very friendly, knowledgeable and nice individuals who are always willing to help and share there expertise. 
The company is expertly managed and you are greatly compensated. The hardest part of the job would be necessity to travel. The company has plants all over the Texas and most of the time you have to drive all the time to move around plants.

Many employees have been at this company for many years.  hard to break the "This is the way we've always done it" syndrome.

Lip service for elimination of waste.

No sense of urgency throughout the company.

Hardest part of the job is waiting on employees to do their assigned and trained jobs.  

Most enjoyable part of the job is that I feel valued and I enjoy working with most employees.
