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.

Pros

With a shift in focus to energy independence, non-fossil energy sources are becoming increasingly important. Exelon Corporation is at the forefront of utility companies by providing its customers with a diversified set of energy sources, solar, hydro, natural gas, and nuclear. It's a company that is very environmentally conscious, has a wide range of career oppurtunities, and is consistently growing.

Cons

There are downsides to any company and Exelon is no exception. Employees can be expected to work more than the standard work week (50hrs+, nights, weekends), however, these sacrifices don't go unrewarded. Employees are recognized through company awards, bonuses, and significant raises.

Pros

The benefits, clean work environment.

Cons

Management get treated poorly, they put in allot of hours and get nothing. Exelon is onlyworried about making megawatts instead of fixing problems until they have to. They have all their rules. procedures which they preach, but when a job can't be done because of their rules or procedure, they want you to just "wing it".
