      False Promises - Anonymous employee Exelon Employee Review

      Pros

      Pay, benefits, and retirement benefits are above average.

      Cons

      I have been with Exelon as a member of management for several years and am extremely frustrated. I have interviewed for several positions out there only to be disappointed time after time. In almost every instance I have been the most qualified, educated, or experienced candidate but was not selected. I am a solid employee that is dedicated, loyal, and respected by my peers. So, why do I keep getting passed over? It's primarily because of nepotism or the good old boy system that gets me every time or the excuse that they "had" to find a job for an employee. In the two times that has happened to me, the person beating me out had a parent working for Exelon....Hmmm....shocker. Compensation is based on who you know and not experience or past accomplishments. My advice is that you shouldn't expect anything based on hard work because it doesn't matter. What matters is if your mommy or daddy or buddy works there. If so, definitely apply to Exelon.

      Pros

      Compared to other companies… Exec leadership is good at change management communications. They make it obvious what they’re planning to do next as external pressures increase. Everyone has access to copilot There are a ton of benefits (but they’re confusing and disorganized). Parking rebate, education reimbursement program,

      Cons

      The worst tech organization I’ve ever worked with. Technology is extremely outdated and the people aren’t helpful. They’ll close your ticket without ever contacting you and you’re left spending hours going in circles. This makes their onboarding VERY difficult for new employees who can’t find anything. Customer service roles are very very unhelpful. For example- credit card group sent the job aid in response to a question, I shared with them the exact areas where the job aid links were broken and incomplete and got no response. Compensation was lower than the market by a significant margin.

      Thank you for your positive comments regarding communication, AI access, and benefits. We recognize that reliable technology and responsive tech support are both critical to a positive employee experience —especially during onboarding. It’s concerning to hear that you encountered difficulty getting assistance and unresolved tickets. That’s not the experience we aim to provide, and your feedback highlights areas where we clearly need to improve.
