Pros

I was lucky to make some amazing connections and life long friends while working at NBC Universal. There's a pretty decent work life balance. Everyone works hard and can take part in the perks; theme parks, benefits, movie screenings & sports tickets.

Cons

Though the company is growing as a whole, my department was stagnant and everyone seemed complacent. Everyone has to "pay their dues" but when you're due the company might not be ready for you, delaying your ability to grow. You'll need to use connections to learn what is available at other networks. Overall, a traditional corporate environment. Entry Level positions are payed low. Low raises.

Pros

Great perks and benefits! Free theme park tickets, cable, peacock subscription. Good place for interns

Cons

Entry level pay is very poor and not sustainable. Lot of politics when it comes to promotions and it is based more on relationship with management rather than actual performance. Upper management just takes all your work and presents as their own. Fake it till you make is at every level of this organization. Hired people as remote and now is laying everyone off.
