Pros

Very flexible organisation which gives individuals plenty of development headroom and opportuities to grow. Has also been one of the most sucessful organisations of its type over the last 10 years. Rewards are commensurate with effort and seem to be fairly distributed. Company seems to have attracted some very talented people and it is a pleasure to work with them.

Cons

Organisation has grown rapidly and can sometimes be unclear who is responsible for what.

Pros

The people are more than qualified, and very friendly. With few exceptions, everyone from entry-level to upper-management gets along great which creates a very productive atmosphere. With all the experience in-house, learning possibilities are rampant. For a very long time, Reading was the center of the WP power world, but the company has grown tremendously over the last decade. Those changes have drawbacks, but also create endless opportunities for the qualified and open-minded employee.

Cons

Location, location, location. If you're looking for the variety, competition and networking available in a large city, you won't find it in Reading. Many employees are "lifers" from the area, but they do manage to draw some fresh blood from the surrounding satellite universities and Philadelphia (although not always for long). Overall the quality of the people offsets the lack of quality in the area. Like most large companies, WP is a little top-heavy these days.

Pros

Balance of life & work being promoted by the management. Excellent training for newly graduates. Understanding and efficient management during time of crisis. Good compensation package. Flexible time. Very good safety training. Overall the management is doing a good job.

Cons

Limited opportunites for progress for mid-level posistions. While there are a lot of programs for newly graduates, long time employees on mid-level positions are feeling left out. Some highly capable senior engineers are doing menial/entry level jobs that the newbies can easily perform. Company often times are not trying hard to keep the good employees from leaving. These are the same employees whom they spend a lot of time & money to recruit.
