Pros

The best reason to work for Comcast is because of the perks that come with the position, such as free cable and internet with discounted home phone service, out of town trips, bonuses, monthly giveaways and consistent promotions. There is also a commission structure which can greatly impact your compensation. Also, there is an exponential amount of opportunity for growth, one has to prove themselves as a trust-worthy employee who is trained with the knowledge to effectively complete their position. Another thing about the company is once you are welcomed as an employee, all of the doors are opened for you and where you choose to go next depends on you and your goals.

Cons

Some of the downsides to working for Comcast is not being able to fix all problems. As you are aware, people may experience bad customer service, billing errors, malfunctioning equipment and lapses in service. As a representative for the company, we always put ourselves in the frame of mind as the customer and attempt to resolve the issue as quickly as possible; however there is also a protocol that must be followed and sometimes the chain of command is extensive and has a long wait time for issues to be resolved. The insurance is great, however, there could always be changes...

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.
