Comcast Reviews in Greenwood Village, Arapahoe, CO

I have been working at Comcast full-time for more than a year

Pros – Very competitive salary and benefits. Lots of cool technical things to do. Technical management is competent and have reasonable expectations regarding schedules and policies.

Cons – The usual big company complexity: lots of data, lots of processes, it takes some time to find the people and resources you need to get things done.

Advice to Senior Management – The corporate vision is good, just give your second and third line managers a little more autonomy.

I worked at Comcast

Pros – The work was interesting and challenging, and there was quite a bit of autonomy with regard to daily tasks.
The compensation and benefits packages were in line with the market, maybe even slightly higher.

Cons – Very disorganized and chaotic. Many, many self imposed outages to troubleshoot -one department didn't know what the other was doing. Knowledge (both technical and internal policy) was not shared; making the job very difficult for new employees.

Advice to Senior Management – Have a new employee orientation setup, and better communicate between departments what work is being done in the network.

I worked at Comcast

Pros – I was a contractor but the benefits seemed to be great. Very liberal time off policy - maybe a little bit too liberal.

Cons – Strange culture. Weak management, closed door policy. Seemed like it was hard to get promoted or pay raises. Used free or express editions of software to develop corporate Web sites. Managers were constantly out or leave in the middle of the day. I was told my contract was good until the end of 2010 but was terminated all of the sudden. I was a contractor but expected to act like a full time employee. Constantly expected to work more than 40 hours but only charge 40 but turn in less than 40 on holiday weeks. Too many single dimensional people.

Advice to Senior Management – You need to start looking at some your middle managers, some of them are a joke - they have no idea what they are doing and some are out of the office too much. You could get by with hiring less contractors if you would do a little house cleaning.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
