      A sad, disorganized company - Anonymous employee Philadelphia Gas Works Employee Review

      Pros

      If you are an employee, PGW is probably a great place to work. It's a very relaxed atmosphere. You are required to live within the city limits, but health benefits are free. They hardly ever fire anyone, most people work there for many, many years... so do their brothers, parents, cousins, etc.

      Cons

      Management does not respect the contributions of contractors or employees, processes are written, but rarely followed. The buildings are not clean, with leaking roofs and frequently broken HVAC systems. The organization as a whole is resistant to change, in spite of statements to the contrary. Contractors are treated like second class citizens.

      Pros

      Easy work guaranteed 40 hours a week great benefits no lay offs pension 457 or 401k paid sick days holidays and vacation days

      Cons

      You get penalized for using sick days to easy to lose progressions in the summer time the higher up have less work so they micromanage everything you do new rules are constantly being added it’s not a real union the union works for Pgw so it’s a conflict of interest when it comes time for them to defend you the company always puts the blame on you if they can never find a conclusive answer to a problem
