Pros

Stable environment with good people. Mid-management has been nothing but great. DO your job and you'll get treated very well. Plenty of room to move laterally or advance. Great benefits, great work life balance. The pay is probably on the lower range for engineers when compared to tech companies, but I cannot be sure.

Cons

Storm duty sucks. It's not the extra shifts that are annoying, it's the fact that you're forced into a role you often have no idea how to do.

Pros

Great work-life balance and work-from-home option on Mondays and Fridays. Great place to learn about the industry, as ComEd/Exelon is a leader in its field. Generally a very positive work culture, with a few toxic people here and there - no different from any company. They also encourage you to move around to different roles if you so choose, which is really supportive and unique among companies.

Cons

Pay is FAR below the industry standard. Lots of PMs are jumping ship for $30K - $50K more pay doing the same job in other companies - including ComEd's consulting firms. And now, it appears that the annual bonus is going to be partially cut by the new "high performance workforce" initiative - thereby eliminating the final incentive to stay. Unfortunately, I have now joined the ranks of those looking for greener pastures myself. I'd love to stay, but I can't ignore the ability to make $40K more elsewhere.
