Pros

Some 401k matching, tuition reimbursement, mediocre healthcare plans

Cons

A very top-heavy company. Employee recommendations are not seriously considered. The bottom line at Comcast is money, they don't even try to improve services until customers are lost or make significant numbers of complaints. Systems used by employees are outdated and poorly designed. The company is outsourcing much of their jobs as long as they are not customer facing. The only thing keeping this company afloat is their non-competition footprint where other cable providers agree not to offer competing services. If a fiber provider moves into their internet service area, they will lose their internet service customers because they cannot compete with a fiber offering. If a company develops an internet video package with comparable channel offerings, I believe that Comcast will fold. The company's internal communications are very disorganized. It is nearly impossible for customer support staff to contact dispatch to get any information on the status of field technicians, or contact the NOC to escalate network issues. Annual wage increases are so low that any significant increase in income requires promotion. Management makes little to no effort to promote their employees. The company gave no notice prior to laying off my team and my position was posted on their job board under a different management region (to avoid being sued) the same day. This company has no qualms about laying off large teams and hiring others to do the same jobs at lower wages in different regions to increase profit.

Pros

Working at Comcast has given me the opportunity to develop myself; take the time to grow and learn, and that was really important to me during the time in my life when I joined the company. If you have the drive and ambition, there are a ton of ways in which you can grow into a leader if that's what you want to be. I took advantage of the continued education benefit and am finishing my masters degree now... I also joined a couple of the employee resource groups which offer seminars and networking events that support your professional profile. Listen, I'm not a total nerd. The point of my post is that this isn't a company you join and just stay stale within. They encourage your growth, but it's up to you to make it happen. Not only this - it's pretty exciting. We're busy and we have big jobs to do. My salary is in the top percentile for my industry but not only this, I again get the continued education (which is ~$6K/year) plus free cable/internet, top health care benefits and a truly balanced lifestyle - which is rarely the case within the Tech industry.

Cons

Telling people you work at Comcast triggers 2 typical responses: 1) A big hatred rant on customer service 2) A how do I get my foot in the door? The reputation of the company is difficult, but the style of the company is to stay humble - I've never seen the company defend themselves against the harmful and discrediting news that exists. I personally think they should defend themselves a little more - they are between a rock and a hard place in many instances of service. I personally experienced visiting someone's home where the issues they were having with their connection was due to a tree root growing into the cable lines which had been their for over 20 years. Things like that cannot be diagnosed over a phone call. It's hard work in the field for sure. Being a part of the corporate side sometimes we're too disconnected from what's happening on the frontline. So I think the size of the organization comes with its complications, but again if you're a working professional looking for an exciting, robust and sexy career, you can comfortably have it here.
