Working at MidAmerican Energy in Des Moines, IA: 2 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Des Moines, IA Area

"Little oversight of the day to day work which is nice if you like to put your head down and get to work. Slow-paced and predictable work. Great if you like that kind of work especially with competitive salary and benefits. Coworkers are usually great and talented people. Little to no oversight or supervision, which can be bad if you need that. Lack of efficient onboarding and training, leaving younger employees thirsting for knowledge and older employees unaware of more basic but newer technologies. Unflexible work hours, pretty rigid 8-5. Not a lot of opportunities for advancement and lack of relationship out of the office. Upper and mid-level management should focus on communication and feedback to allow for positive change."

"Worked there for 5+ years, the only constant is change. Poor performers are moved upwards to get out of trouble, middle management is afraid stand up for their workers, and upper management is only concerned about making sure they get their bonus and shareholders make their 10%. They are slowly implementing new open offices, if which nobody asked for, not likes. When brought up it's given a "deal with it" answer. Those who stick up will get shot down. There are no real raises unless you get promoted. Most raises barely exceed the GDP rate or any other cost of living index."
