Highly recommend this company

Senior project manager

Business Outlook

Pros

Getting ready to retire comfortably after 35 years. I worked at a nuke for 25 then moved around for 10 working on Fukushima, Solar, LNG and international relations. Worked at PECo, Exelon Generation, Exelon Power, and Constellation. The variety will keep you interested and the pay will keep you satisfied. The people are honest, reliable, fair, hard working, and nice to work with

Cons

You need to be dedicated and care about your work; otherwise, don't bother. You can't smoke marijuana because the nuclear side performs drug tests, which is a blessing because you will save money and all your co-workers are clean & sober.

Pros

1. Safety is at the center of everything they do. 2. There are procedures for everything that is done to allow for consistent effort/performance. 3. There is a lot of room for growth within the company. 4. Everyone is constantly improving and finding ways to improving the plant/fleet through a questioning attitude and finding/fixing problems.

Cons

1. The vision of the company changes each year and by site. 2. Communication between levels and sites could be improved. 3. Retirement versus knowledge turnover could be improved.

Great Company to Work For

Senior engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Training and advancement is encouraged. Leadership has a long range vision and doesn't drive from quarter to quarter. The plants have a fix it right and fix it once culture. Temporary repairs are only in place long enough to fix things right.

Cons

The training and qualification process is built for people new to the industry and can be challenging to those bringing in experience from other companies in the electric industry. People seem a little set in their ways.
