Nobody is happy anywhere in the company, no matter which legacy company they came from. Save for the suck ups! Our management doesn't give a frogs fat ass about the employees. I hope the folks at South Carolina Electric and Gas folks know how lucky they got the other day when Dominion bought them rather than Dook! I don't know if I can stand the few years I have left or not! I've been offered several good jobs by contractors....but it's right back on Dook property, so what would be the point? I may go to work at the bus station....pickin fleas off of Greyhounds. It's gotta be better than workin for Dook!
Hang in there man!!! The same happened to us when worst energy bought us. I put in 11 years working for them, it got better once we won $16 million in an arbitration case against them. It took a while but they calmed down a little.
you say they cut your pay, I must assume you are non union?
