RecommendsPositive OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Exelon full-time for more than 10 years
Pros
Great benefits, good co-workers, work positively impacts the community, career opportunities are available.
Cons
HR leadership/policies/procedures are inconsistent and poor. Low company loyalty to workers. All year storm duties for all support staff.
Advice to Management
Widen your viewpoint beyond just chasing "Industry" best practices, best survey scores, and utilize some common sense. Challenge current HR policies/procedures to make sure best candidates are selected for each position.

Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI have been working at Exelon full-time for more than 5 years
Pros
Competitive pay rate. Also the company has an emphasis on career progression. Also, they are attempting to cut the administrative burdens that plague engineers, although with extremely limited success.
Cons
The staff has been severely cut, through retirements and normal attrition, in an effort to reduce overhead. But no work has been cut. Engineers are stretched very thin and often work long hours. What makes the situation worse is the lack of knowledge retention. We have lost a lot of very smart folks with 30 plus years of experience to retirement but there is very little effort to transfer their knowledge and experience...

When new policies are dreamed up, also enact a workable change management plan. If you reduce workers, you have to reduce work otherwise it doesnt make a difference.

Pros
It's good money, and if you're into working overtime, there's plenty of that. It's super easy.
Cons
There is a lot of forced overtime because they refuse to hire enough people. You can't count on having your days off, and so you can't plan anything. It takes years to go from nights to days. 12 hour shifts can really grind you down.
Advice to Management
For the love of God, hire more people than the bare bones minimum.
