Pros
- Solid mission focus regarding clean energy transition - Work life balance - Employee Resource Groups - Several leaders working towards improving mentorship, networking, and development opportunities (Book club, executive mentorship program, rotational program for entry level)
Cons
- Healthcare benefits should be better given size of company - Getting on interesting projects is difficult if you are not an engineer. Good talent is always leaving. - Top performers often underpaid. Negotiate! - While there are some great leaders at Xcel, alignment across senior and executive leadership largely appears to work in silos. This creates information gaps, redundancy, and a general feeling that many leaders are incapable of leading teams in cross organizational collaborative work initiatives. - No training - 401k match is just ok - Minority leadership is minimal
