Worked with a good bunch of guys
Pretty hard to get on with EPCOR Utilities. Depending on where you are placed, you could be pigeonholed with no opportunity to advance. Nepotism is evident everywhere. People with multiple DO NOT REHIRE recommendations are hired over other competent employees.
Safety First
Majority of communication downstream in the company revolved around safety. Incidents always led to reactionary measures and increased messaging. Despite safety first messaging, field staff were required to get things done fast, properly. Realistically, something always has to give, and that something should be time.
Prductive and fun work place with games like corn hole and lottery
We get tickets from various departments for hardware and software issues
We troubleshoot and configure the required applications , hardware
SCCM update issues are another challenge
Good knowledge of SQL and hand on experience is all it need to resolve.
Unfortunately my contract was ended.

Watch your back ...
Terrible managers ... highly incompetent and will not hesitate to throw you under the bus for failures that are their responsibility. Stressful work environment. Lack of transparency. People get fired all the time.
I would not work here again -- despite there being good people/co-workers and good work-life balance opportunities. Not worth the mental stress of dealing with bad managers, a complicit HR department and a culture that revolves around backstabbing others to get ahead.
Just sad that good people who work hard get treated so badly ... avoid!

If I wasn't moving I would stay there until I retire
This has been the best experience of my professional career.
Management culture is great, they care about us as people and employees. Managers are embedded into the teams and will support you if you need help.
We work with new tools, we have access to MSDN, everything you could want, we get it. Project management is not quite agile but they're making progress.
The software we build gets used by people everyday and we interact with the users providing updates year after year. It's so nice to actually see something you built get used..
I would work here again 100%

Terrible company
Worst management I’ve ever experienced. Human Resources will crucify union people for speaking up. I can’t say enough about this nasty place to properly communicate how poorly run certain areas of this company are handled.
Pros
They provide water and rkectricity
Cons
Management and Human Resources
Clock watching Negative Company
This company focuses only on negative aspects. Never any positive recognition or feedback. If you want a place where you feel like your back in high school, then this is it. Bullying happening all around you. No matter how hard you work you can't get past the favourites in the company regardless if you have more seniority or work your butt off Would not recommend this company if my life depended upon it.
Pros
Good benefits
Cons
Very negative Atmosphere
Great company, government environment
Worked as an employee for 6 years. As an employee you are treated well, great compensation, benefits are high compared to other companies. Moved cities or would have stayed on as an employee.
Pros
Great work/life balance
Cons
Union salaries for non-management positions
Overall Good Employer
My immediate supervisor was a bully. But the middle managment was okay. Work life balance is okay as well as the salary. The benefits were THE BEST I have EVER seen. Benefits made the job okay.
Pros
Benefits
Cons
Slow reaction to bullying complaints
