Pros

Good work life balance Good brand to have on resume Nice campus and amenities Lots of interesting events to be part of

Cons

The smartest people are leaving for FAANG and the company is not doing anything to pay competitively. Netflix has been the number one poacher of our talent according to LinkedIn. I recently joined Netflix and the pay and culture is light years ahead of where NBCU is. Had NBC paid me more to stay, I would never have thought twice of joining Netflix because I really enjoyed and miss working with my co-workers there for so many years, but I have a feeling one day they will rejoin me here, given the trend.

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.
