Nebraska Public Power District

NPPD employees are smart, hardworking, talented individuals dedicated to serving the state of Nebraska and our fellow Nebraskans. Nebraska Public Power District has excellent benefits including: a a generous paid parental leave program, separate vacation and medical leave quotas rather than one combined PTO program, an outstanding 401k match, an annual HSA employer contribution, wellness & safety programs and incentives, medical, dental, vision, life, long-term care insurance and a new retiree health stipend. Pay is excellent. 

Work is good at NPPD, company takes care of their own.  The people at the top take care of everyone all the way down the ranks.  Management at my end was poor though, always looking for reasons to make an issue out of nothing.  Hardest part of the job was dealing with the division I was in, the management was lackluster.  There are a ton of things on the upside though, that is why I would recommend NPPD for anyone looking for a solid, stable job.

Overall this is a good company to work for, the hardest part about working at Cooper Nuclear is the location.

You can learn continuously here and as long as you are a productive, honest employee you can almost guarantee that you will always have employment here.  

If you're from the area you will likely never leave if you are working here.  There isn't much for employment outside of the nuclear plant for about 50 miles, and the communities are tight nit.

Great people to work with. How to work with outside vendors. Learned the Microsoft office components. Was a supervisor when I worked in Security. Wrote requisitions and purchase orders. Loved the job. Keeping track of the essential equipment. Running reports. Keeping up the data bases. Company offers training onsite for advancement 


There were no evaluation criteria for personnel performance. When review time came around, employees found out the hard way that they were evaluated to a different set of criteria than what was discussed at the previous review. Usually, the evaluation criteria were kept secret so no adjustments could be accomplished prior to the review.

Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) is a solid company to work for.  For the first six years, I worked in the Fossil Engineering department, which dealt with the coal fired and hydro generating plants.  Then I transferred to the Nuclear Engineering Department.

Work was good - people I worked with in North Platte, NE were great. Compensation and working condition for the six-month contract were good.  North Platte is a comfortable small town/city in the middle of Nebraska.

NPPD was/is such a great place to work.  I can't say enough about how well they treat their employees and respective families.  I only left because of things in my personal life changed and I felt that I needed to be closer to my kids or I would still be working there. 

Your coworkers will be very nice and passionate, but the company as a whole doesn't feel the same way. Since it is a public company there were no bonuses at the end of the year and time sheets had to be completed and reviewed every pay period for all employees.

Good place to work. Good benefits. It's a nice place to work. Traditional Utility with a hierarchical structure that at times is onerous. 
Location is pretty rural. Closest city of any size is 1.5 hours away.
