Default Progress Energy Nuclear Plant??

Hi, does anyone work for the Raleigh Progress Energy Nuclear plant, and if so, how do you like working for the company? Would you say they are family friendly, and a great company to work for?

I knew several ex-workers.

Progress recently got people to leave so they could be replaced at lower wages.

Uh-oh! Please excuse my ignorance if my question shows it, but is this a norm with all big companies, or is this something I should worry about as a maybe new employee?? You know what I mean? I'm a newbie to the corp. world?

Not everywhere but becoming more frequent.

Circuit City did this just before folding in bankruptcy.

Once again saturnfan does not have his facts right. 3 years ago Progress Energy offered VOLUNTARY retirement to those that were eligible. This is contrary to what Circuit City did which fired/laid off their older employees to hire younger/cheaper ones.

DM me if you want any info regarding working at the Harris Nuclear Plant.
