Pros

Great pay and benefits. Great people to work with. Employees seem to enjoy their jobs. Management is engaged and in tune with employees.

Cons

The storm duty role imposed on salary ComEd staff is demanding and very disruptive to your family life. The role is in addition to your regular eight hour job. Storm duty requires you to report to work for an additional twelve hour work shift when outages occur. The role you are assigned to is totally irrelavant to your normal duties. When teams are out of the office serving storm duty, it creates a disruption to business unit funtions. Not to mention you can be summoned by a pager to report to duty during terrible weather conditions which can put your safety at risk.. Not sure why Exelon employees are not assigned a storm duty role. Not fair.

Pros

I had an enjoyable experience working at ComEd in the TCE department for the summer. If you want to go into the energy industry it is a great company to be at.

Cons

The speed of innovation is not very fast since you are restricted by needing the stability of electric utilities. ComEd is probably one of the most technologically advanced utility across the US.
