Pros

Exelon encourages their employees to take on other roles in the company, allowing for personal development and they invest in employee development training. Exelon paid for my MBA which is a huge benefit. Other benefits are good as well with generous vacation, 401k, pension, and bonuses. Leadership cares about the safety of their employees and makes it the #1 priority.

Cons

A large portion of Exelon is 24x7 and you know this going in, but it is sometimes hard for your family and friends to understand when working nights, weekends, or holidays. This is offset with a generous vacation policy.

Pros

Among other things, Exelon offers a career in an exciting industry (energy trading) that is hard to break into. Compensation is commensurate with competitors with opportunities for significant upside over time. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Challenges include having to navigate through the workings of a large company. There may not be a clearly defined career path. Onus is on individuals to find their area of expertise and progression path.

Pros

Most of my experience has been in the utilities at Exelon and I have found that the leaders are truly interested in the employees and support work/life balance. Much responsibility is given to employees, making it a challenging, but interesting place to work. There is tremendous opportunity for growth and advancement, all of which is highly encouraged and supported by management. Special projects, temporary assignments, rotations, and shadowing opportunities are all available to let employees test the waters for different roles and see if different roles and positions would interest them. The pay and benefits (great vacation allotment) are really competitive too! Also, the company is very flexible, at least in the non-field positions, in terms of work flex schedules or from remote locations.

Cons

As Exelon continues to grow and expand through mergers and acquisitions, the change process associated with aligning companies can be a little tough.
