Pros

Generous salary when compared to other utiliy-based companies for the same position, good benefits, 401(K) and pension, and annual incentive bonus (based on company performance).

Cons

PECO division was downsized greatly ~ 20 years ago, so that the few that are still employed are over-worked, especially during storms. The lines that once defined your job "roles and responsibilities" are easily blurred given the right "business need" at the time. Knowledge level of company as a whole is lacking, and expected to get worse as those with 25, 30,40+ yrs. experience either move on or retire with the majority of the younger engineers having <5 yrs. of experience.

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 Technology is extremely outdated and the people aren’t helpful.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.
