Our story is a people story

At NRG, people are the heart of our company, and their success is the best expression of ours. We call this Power Your Possible — a statement and a philosophy that drives the way each employee’s career growth can take hold.

A mission to grow and a mindset to evolve

We are a customer-focused company where growth is the result of guiding businesses and households to the right energy solution. To do that, we need innovative and talented people to join our company.

NRG celebrates the individual while together championing our diversity

Talent Acquisition

Fostering space for belonging from day one brings the best and the brightest to NRG. Our policies, including our Employee and Contractor policy, are inclusive, and we mitigate unconscious biases in the hiring process by removing details from resumes that allude to a candidate’s gender identity, race, religion, or socioeconomic background. In addition, we have revised corporate policies to eliminate degree requirements where appropriate. Access to education and transitioning into the workforce is a hurdle many of the best talent faces today. NRG’s programs help provide scholarships, training, and hands-on learning to the next generation.

Pay equity

Equitable compensation and access to growth is an important part of employee satisfaction. In 2020, we completed our first gender and race pay equity study to ensure our employees are compensated for their contributions and not based on gender, race, or other similar factors. The study showed equitable pay practices after accounting for education, experience, performance, and location.

Training & Development

Every person at NRG is accountable for building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. NRG’s robust online training curriculum covers topics from leadership and communication to being antiracist and ensuring all voices are heard. All employees are provided tools to promote equity in their individual roles—this includes unconscious bias training, DEI e-learning series, and a “leading inclusion” training.

“NRG has provided me with an environment that encourages me to develop a diverse skillset and has allowed me to take on new responsibilities.”
