Pros

When it shines, it shines brighter than any public utility in the country. Exelon does a ton right. There is tremendous opportunity to learn about all sectors in the electric utility space, and I mean any part. Exelon is involved from start to finish in the life-cycle of electricity, from production to distribution, to innovation they have it all. Easily a company one could spend an entire career at. Great work-life balance, decent benefits.

Cons

Unfortunately with all the good the company does right, it does just as much, if not more wrong for the employees. Exelon touts their benefits and pay compensation like sites like Glassdoor and LinkedIn don't exist. These are middle of the road at best if not subpar at this point. The biggest problem is career stagnation and outright mismanagement. There are a ton of directors walking around at Exelon that simply don't belong in that role. Nepotism is real, even if senior management denies it. The company also suffers from a ton of roadblocks at middle management positions forcing young talent to look elsewhere for career advancement.
