perfect job with the pay and benefits but the work is hard the bad part is that they say if you work a man near his home he will layout all the time so they keep you atleast 2 or more hours away from home,oh and you get perdium but its only $30.00 a day have you tried to get a clean motel room without call girls and methheads and nasty rooms for $30.00 a night ?no cuz there arent any so you have to pull that out of your pocket if you want a better room,but really they have allowed me to feed and clothe my family for years,you get to learn alot about safety they are straight up on safety i wouldnt be scared to say they are the safest company i have ever worked for .and you learn alot from coworkers about the different jobs at hand and different skills,if you are single and willing to work hard and want to learn about power distibution then this is your calling.great company

The people and culture make the company. People stay and sometimes die here. There are some opportunities, but you have to be a go-getter or else you will be stuck and underpaid. One of the few things I don't care about the company is how slow it is and the lack of communication. Not everyone is kept in the loop, which I think would make it run more efficiently. They are a bit behind on the times and still run partially on paper. SEC is trying to offer more flexible remote options, but they are taking their time. If you follow along you'll have no problem. There is a disconnect between the office and the field guys, which goes back to the communication. Lineman make great money thanks to the union and they've got plenty of work going on in various places.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Bad with lack of respect for older employees and new managers that have no relationship  or about them.

The company was acquired in April 2012, after being a privately owned business.  Following the acquisition, the new corporate owners made the decision to combine another local sister business into Service Electric.  The transition, communication, and leadership dropped the ball in certain areas, which resulted in an environment of confusion.

Installation of conduit systems were the typical things done here everyday. I learned the importance of laying out you work, so that things are not being redone. Management seemed to have a good grasp on the scope of work. Employees here worked together as a team. The hardest part of the job was coordinating the equipment lay out so the feeders could be installed in the right location. When everything came on and worked, that was the most enjoyable part of the job.

At the time of my employment I learned what I was and what I was not willing to take from an employer. It's hard to keep a positive attitude when the owner tells everyone at the weekly meeting that he could train a monkey to do your job and it would cost him less to do so. Not the best environment to in during my time there. This may have changed over the years but I can only report on my experiences while employed.

Service electric company is a great company to work for. With the best insurance money can buy! The work/life balance is tough when you have a family. You travel four days outta the week. Service electric company provides you with all of you FR uniforms at no cost to you.

The days go by fast because it's relatively fast paced. You have the opportunity to learn from some of the best in the trade. There's little micromanagement. The hardest part of the job was living in two places at one time. The most enjoyable part of the job was turning power back on for those who have been going without for whatever tragic storm.
