Exelon leaders proudly show the recognitions the company has received.

When you have a workplace where people of all backgrounds feel they can do their best work, everyone wins. That’s certainly true at Exelon where we know listening to and understanding others’ viewpoints is critical to achieving our purpose.
Doing this successfully is not just important to Exelon. When comparing us to our peers, external stakeholders believe we have a winning workplace as well. Exelon is once again one of the “Top 50 Companies for Diversity,” according to DiversityInc, ranking at number 24 this year, up eight spots from 2018.
DiversityInc., the preeminent publication focused on corporate diversity, recognizes the nation’s top companies each year that excel in areas advancing equity in the workplace, including hiring, retaining and promoting women, people of color, people with disabilities, LGBTQ employees and veterans. Exelon is the highest ranked energy company on the DiversityInc. list. The organization also named Exelon one of the “Top 10 Companies for Diverse Leadership” (number 4!), as well as a “Top Company for Veterans.”
Military Times agrees, naming Exelon one of the nation’s “Best for Vets,” a highly competitive honor given to companies that devote resources to recruiting veterans and their families and providing any support they may need for a successful transition from military to civilian life.
Exelon kicked off its winning streak when, after conducting a nation-wide survey, Forbes named Exelon to its second annual list of the Best Employers for Diversity. We’re especially proud that the Forbes rankings are based on feedback from our own employees.
“These national honors let us know we’ve been paying attention to what brings the best people to Exelon and makes them want to stay,” said Amy Best, Exelon’s Chief Human Resources Officer.
“Rankings like these also emphasize that a truly inclusive workplace gives us a competitive edge, because the more ideas we have from a variety of minds, the more innovative we can be. Thank you to all our employees whose contributions make Exelon better every day.”
