Pros

Legacy as one of the great media companies of all time, but no more.

Cons

You know you're in trouble when the single largest division of the company is ad sales. Not content. Ad sales. Once mighty and envied, NBCU took too long to get into the streaming business and then put a group of people who had no idea what they were doing in charge of it. And in the process, new CEO Jeff Shell and his bean counters decimated the corporate culture by shredding countless divisions in the name of shoring up the disaster that is now Peacock.

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.
