Constellation Energy Group Reviews

Former Employee – worked at Constellation Energy Group

Pros – Constellation Energy had competitvie salaries and benefits. There was a good worklife balance and workload very reasonable. Overall, OK company to work for.

Cons – Employees not always treated with respect they deserve. There is a large focus on networking and politics rather than job performance.

Advice to Senior Management – More communication with employees would be beneficial. Leadership should be held accountable to the core values of the business.

Current Employee – been working at Constellation Energy Group

Pros – The compensation package can be good at Constellation; however, the work/life balance will depend upon the department and manager. There are lots of opportunities to learn, grow, and gain exposure to senior management if you're good.

Cons – If you're good, you'll have more work than you know what to do with. This can lead to a terrible work/life balance if you don't manage it correctly. Also, there has been a lot of organizational changes in the last few years in some of the departments which can be stressful if you like a stable/predictable environment.

Advice to Senior Management – Continue to allow employees to stretch beyond their job title; however, allow them to make the inevitable mistakes in a safe environment.

Former Employee – worked at Constellation Energy Group

Pros – Health Benefits are the only positive that I experienced while at Constellation Energy. The only other thing that comes close to a "Pro" is the work/life balance.

Cons – As stated in the "Pros" of work/life balance, the reason that the hours are low is because senior management does not push employees to strive to perform at a higher level.

Advancement opportunities are very limited.

Information sharing (re: to the business and employee's performance) is very limited.

Advice to Senior Management – Stop rewarding employee complacency and focus on the employees with the knowledge and determination. Constellation also needs to focus on adding valuable talent and not just "button pushers".

Current Employee – been working at Constellation Energy Group

Pros – Though I only worked as an intern, I gathered from my full-time colleagues that Constellation has a competitive and generous compensation package. This includes full tuition reimbursements at local colleges and universities. Furthermore, I worked in downtown Baltimore near Inner Harbor so the location is vibrant and exciting, especially during the summer. Many of my intern friends in other departments were kept very busy and immediately immersed in the company's everyday operations.

Cons – I had minimal training and was given very little direction as to what goals I was hired to accomplish. For most of my time there, I was felt quite bored due to lack of work.

Advice to Senior Management – Instead of sending out mass e-mails as the primary way of communicating important issues and changes, find a more effective medium so that it's less impersonal.

Current Employee – been working at Constellation Energy Group

Pros – They have a great benefits package medical sick leave and other non-monetary benefits. Had satellite offices in many cities as well.

Cons – Company was not very responsible in spending
Lies to employees about the financial shape and current status
Horrible severance package if you get laid off

Advice to Senior Management – Be honest with employees and might avoid pitfalls. Stay within energy and not go outside core with trading energy with investment banks.

Cons – Sometimes it seemed that it was hard to move within the company. I enjoyed my team but felt if I wanted to switch it would of been hard.

Advice to Senior Management – I felt that they could of offered a program which would enable the interns to move amongst the different teams and really see the exposure within the company.
