Pros – The environment is well suited for people who have ambitions and want to learn.
They pay is competitive and the opportunity to advance is more present than in other departments.
Hard work and commitment to the job is noticed and rewarded.
The benefits of working for Comcast are impressive: free cable, corporate discounts on things like cars and cell phone bills, 401k matching, stock discounts, vacation and sick time, paid holidays, great health, dental and vision insurance.
Management stresses a healthy work/life balance and respects it.

Cons – Spotlight is competitive and full of talented people. If you want to achieve something you need to be committed, talented and driven. It can happen, but only if you work for it.

I have been working at Comcast Spotlight full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Big company with all the benefits

Cons – So bottom line driven with all the benefits going only to the top in your division and local management teams that all else is lost . Any hope that your own productivity will lead to growth and advancement will be quickly dashed - the results will only benefit the top national, regional and local management. They hide behind the 'we must change and adapt' principle to the point where the only thing that will likely change is you - being out of a job or minimized - while the changers benefit.

Advice to Senior Management – Giving advice would be futile.

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

Pros – Great benefits (event tickets, contests, discounts, free cable)
Local office, Fortune 50 company
Decent training for new reps
Sales Assistants are great
Good office comaraderie (not much lead stealing)

Cons – Unfair to commissioned sales reps--the more you succeed, the more you are punished with lower commission and higher quota.
Keeps the hard-working rep's commission when a client pays late. Yep, the company keeps the rep's commission for themselves!
Complaints about lack of selling time go dismissed. Honestly, so much data entry to enable them to fire you whenever while maintaining account records eats up 70% of the work time.
HR is not there for employees, it's there for management and it is filled with lack of support and lack of personalization.
LOTS of micro-managing.

Advice to Senior Management – Hiring young, inexperienced sales reps will only take you so far. At this point, your reputation for undervaluing and underappreciating seasoned reps is preceeding you (as shown by many of the reviews here) and will continue to keep turnover rolling every 2 years and Spotlight's value low to the most talented reps. You will lose from doing this. It may take time, but you will lose market share, subscribers and top talent.

I worked at Comcast Spotlight full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Great people to work with on the support level, discounted cable, free time to start other businesses

Cons – Racism, blatant nepotism, no opportunity for advancement without help from your manager, pay for parking daily, management lacked minorities, what have you done for me today attitude, judgement of your personal life, give surveys about company but don't listen to the advice, employees free to talk about other employees and decisions are made based on these conversations, awards are based on who you know and not what you have accomplished with the company, dated style of dress, management takes personal attacks against you for no reason

Advice to Senior Management – Hire some minorities to manage, listen to employees when they speak, stop the political makeovers

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

I have been working at Comcast Spotlight full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – products are great, benefits are among the best, compensation is fine, company is stable

Cons – Senior leadership at division is only focused on themselves, all the good leaders were forced out, you can't share, lots of layoffs, management hires best friends to run things, you are punished if you share an opinion

Advice to Senior Management – we have all given advice to management to no avail. corporate knows what goes in but tums the other way
