Pros

Exelon has comparable pay and offers a good work environment. This company cares about whether or not you are interested in what you do and will try to create opportunities for you to work on things that you like.

Cons

It is a very large company and sometimes you can feel that people aren't worried about you and sometimes might forget about you. The HR department is totally incompetent. They don't listen and don't use the information that they have. They probably provide more obstacles than help.

Exelon compensates well however loses touch with recognizing its employees at the Sr. Level.

Business Outlook

Pros

Exelon pays engineers very well. A Sr. Engineer can make between 60-110K. An Engineering Supervisor up to 135K. Every year we get b/w a 3-5% raise and our target bonus for a Sr. Engineer is 15%. You should get 15% if you are a solid performer and can get up to 5% more if you are a high performer. This bonus also takes into account station and overall company performanace. The benefits are also good. 3 weeks vacation, 401K (6% match), Cash Balance Pension Plan, 5 floating holidays, 6 sick days.

Cons

The work load is always demanding. Sufficient resources at the engineering level are never up to the necessary amount. Being on call can be stressful especially during an emergent activity.

Pros

I have had a really set of good bosses to work for in the 8 years I have been there, only 1 bad boss. My latest boss really stresses and helps ensure that the work life balance has been achieved. Pay is very good for the area and the field I am in. Vacation is also a definite plus. You need to enforce and embrace the safety conscious work environment at all of Exelon's Nuclear facilities. Safety, Security, and Training are very big parts of Exelon Nuclear. The Information Technology part of Exelon is definitely a good place to be.

Cons

You have to have a really good boss to work for to make the job enjoyable and you need to have drive and determination for your field. Exelon Nuclear Management really stresses and tries to ensure that the work life balance has been achieved. Pay is very good for the area but you need to be willing to put in the extra time and step up to the plate when you are needed. Vacation is also a definite plus, but you might have to sacrifice it from time to time for an urgent problem or project. You need to enforce and embrace the safety conscious work environment at all of Exelon's Nuclear facilities. Safety, Security, and Training are very big parts of Exelon Nuclear.
