Engineer at OPG - Technical Engineer Ontario Power Generation Employee Review

Nuclear environment is extremely procedural driven. Technical knowledge is only half of being good at the job, the other half is knowing all the procedures, red tape, and processes that guide decision making. Job requires engineering knowledge but little "engineering" is actually done. Most of the work is administrative in nature. Company is continuously cutting down on human resources to achieve higher profits year after year. Not a wise approach for long term employee retention and job satisfaction as everyone seems to be doing the job of 2 people.
