Pluspunten
Regulated monopolies tend to stay in business. Historically good pay. Friendly co-workers. Okay benefits but always changing.
Minpunten
As a regulated utility with restrictions on raising rates, the only way they can keep their ROI if people keep electricity use stable is to manage costs. Some costs have to go up, but if they reduce some such as payroll/benefits they can maintain status quo. Unfortunately that can mean layoffs, outsourcing, and not filling positions when employees leave. It really depends on where you get a job in the company, and, to an extent, if you're non-union. Morale isn't what it used to be. It's not fun working in fear of losing your job. Even if you've been there 30+ years.
