Pros

Only positive I have to say is that I am no longer there and no longer getting calls in the middle of night and no longer having to provide Saturday and Sunday updates, even when nothing was going on.

Cons

Too many people hate it there and too many people just waiting out their time until retirement. Too many managers who cannot lead but manage only and manage via fear. Have seen too many incompetent managers promoted simply to move them out of the way. Claim to desire diversity but seen too many examples of reverse discrimination. This is place no different than the City of Chicago. Vendors have to pay to play. Went home nearly every night wondering how this company actually keeps the electricity on

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.
