An Honest Review

Pros

Due to insufficient internal resources & high turnover, there’s frequent openings that allows for you to take on new roles. This can be an ideal scenario for recent graduates to obtain experience & find what role best fits their skills. Despite the lack of resources, thanks to the numerous contractors, whom primarily are retired former employees, there’s still a wealth of knowledge available. The benefits in terms of the 401K & vacation are also competitive with the industry.

Cons

Based on the timeline of the current reviews, it’s highly unlikely that they’re all authentic. Due to inexperienced management, a lack of communication & non-competitive salaries, all departments have suffered significant turn over for the past several years.

Pros

The 401k is decent, the pay mediocre and the benefits good.

Cons

I am a very long term employee who has seen a transformation in the company culture. People who have worked here for 10+ years are systematically overlooked for promotion. Nepotism runs rampant and many key positions are filled by husband/wife, cousins or relatives from the global headquarters. They seem to allow a revolving glass door of overseas employees to fill vacancies. The executive team over the past five years have all found better jobs with other companies that value individual contributions and are not dictatorial in their management style.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience at AVANGRID. We take the concerns of our employees and former employees very seriously. This past year we have promoted many roles from within and further diversified our executive leadership team for stronger direction. Our relationship with Iberdrola helps us leverage best practices to enhance our operations across the business. Our commitment to our customers and community has never been stronger as we exceeded our volunteer hours goal this year and were recognized by Just Capital as a top company for workforce equity and mobility. This year we also expanded our DE&I team and launched a new tradition with Diversity Week. We will continue making serious efforts for driving a culture of employee retention & engagement and will mobilize our Business Resource Groups to identify areas of growth to improve our employees’ workplace experience.
