Ok job base pay needs to be higher.

Current – New

Pros – The opportunity is there to make good money but it is difficult. Benefits are top notch. Great coworkers. A ton of time off.

Cons – They claim you can make 65,000 but im probably closer to only hitting 30,000. Hours can be a problem they want us to work from 10-8 five days a week. The everyday knocking wares on you mentally.

Advice to Senior Management – Adjust quotas for different areas. Help struggling employees.

One of the best companies that I've worked for

Current – New

Pros – Great benefits and if you put in the work then the pay out is great! There are always new opportunities for advancement and you never know what person can help you get to the next level.

Cons – It takes awhile to go through the whole interviewing process.

Easy to get lost in the shuffle

Former

Pros – They have absolutely great benefits (free services, good insurance, discounted services with other providers), wide ranging shifts to choose from, solid training and provide tuition reimbursement. The large company offers a good mix of entry to mid career opportunities to move around.

Cons – Employees are treated like a number, unrealistic expectations, policies that do not protect employees, Change is constant and often at the detriment of employees. It is extremely difficult to move up in the company past a certain point because they hire so much externally at the director level and above which is sad since so many of those people were part of why other companies failed.

Good Company

Former – New

Pros – Benefits are great including discounted services. Very good job stability (very very rare for any layoffs). Can be either a job for some or career for others.

Cons – Salaries across the board are low compared to similar positions. Thinking outside the box is great but difficult to get buy in from key personnel.

Advice to Senior Management – Be open to more ideas from frontline employees to be more efficient with processes that affect both internal and external customers

The company has improved in both custom satisfaction and products over the last 5 years by hiring great leadership.

Former – New

Pros – Comcast is investing in the future and truly focused on improving the customer experience. They are leading with the best new products and highest quality network. The addition of NBC Universal has been a great addition to their portfolio and the partnership with Verizon Wireless was a smart strategic move.

Cons – Due to the size of the company and the constantly changing organizational structure some highly talented resources are constrained from delivering the innovation they are capable of.

A State of Constant Transition

Former

Pros – Good benefits, challenging work, ability to learn new technologies.

Cons – Constant organizational and mgt. changes, never get to leave any process in place long enough to find out if it's working, upper-mgt. too far removed from day-to-day work, schedule dictates everything and quality suffers.

Advice to Senior Management – If you say you're going to empower your people, then you should do it.
