Pros

E.On Climate & Renewables, formerly known as Airtricity, was an Irish-based company until it was purchased by German-owned E.On. Airtricity was an incredible place to work. A place where I was thoroughly satisfied with my work product and company management. I was proud to work for a wind-farm company and raved about the company to my friends and family. It was a very special group of people doing very rewarding work.

Cons

As with many corporate buy-outs, things changed, although not immediately. As time passed, senior management began to leave. New, non-Airtricity folks were hired into senior management roles, and the company lost its synergy. A competitive rift and distrust formed between the Chicago and Austin offices.
