Pros

Out of the three previous companies I worked for out of college hands down this is the best company I have worked for. The company really cares about its employees. The pay is above industry standard and everyone in the company is bonus eligible which you don't see very often from other companies. Exelon has great benefits, generous compensation and gives back to the community and donates and participates in several fundraising events. Exelon has the most friendly environment at a large company I have ever seen. Everyone says hi in the hallways and introduces themselves. I really enjoy my team and co-workers here at work which makes it enjoyable to come to work.

Cons

There can be a lot of work at times and can be a bit overwhelming but Exelon does encourage a work/life balance. It can be hard to move up in the organization since openings don't open very often (need to have a better career mapping for employees).
