At Community Electric Cooperative (CEC), we’re not just a workplace — we’re a community. Our employees are the backbone of everything we do, from keeping the lights on to investing in the well-being of our members. They’re not just employees; they’re neighbors, friends, and fellow community members who care deeply about the people we serve. That’s why we believe in investing in our employees — because when they thrive, our community thrives too.
Hardworking and Dedicated
CEC employees are the driving force behind our commitment to service. Whether it’s restoring power during a storm, participating in community events, or ensuring every member receives the highest level of care, their dedication shines through. This hard work deserves recognition and investment, not only because they serve our members but because they are our members.
Investing in Our Team
To support our employees in both their personal and professional lives, we provide a comprehensive benefits package designed to help them grow, succeed, and feel valued:
- Health Insurance: Keeping our team healthy is a top priority. We offer robust health insurance plans to ensure they and their families are cared for.
- Matching 401(k) & Pension: We invest in their future with a competitive 401(k) match and a pension plan, giving them financial security for years to come.
- Tuition Reimbursement: Education is a lifelong journey, and we’re here to help. Our tuition reimbursement program supports employees in furthering their education, whether it’s through degree programs or specialized certifications.
- Continuing Education Opportunities: Learning doesn’t stop after graduation. CEC employees have access to training sessions, online courses, and industry conferences to stay at the top of their field.
- Team Appreciation Days: From team-building activities to celebratory events, we take the time to show our gratitude for the incredible work our employees do.
Why It Matters
When we invest in our employees, we’re not just helping them grow — we’re strengthening the entire community. Skilled, knowledgeable employees mean better service, innovative solutions, and a more connected cooperative. By supporting their education and well-being, we’re empowering them to deliver the best for our members.
Part of the Community
Our employees live, work, and raise families right here in the community. They’re the friendly faces you see at local events, the parents cheering at ball games, and the volunteers giving back alongside you. By investing in their development, we’re making sure that our workforce reflects the values and needs of the community we all share.
The CEC Difference
Being part of the CEC team isn’t just a job — it’s a calling to serve. It’s about working hard, growing together, and making a difference every day.
