Pros

Benefits and always learning new technology, I am always pushed to learn the next great product to make our customers remain loyal and to win other customers. Comcast is paying to help me finish my degree and is working with my school schedule to make it happen, not every employer would do that.

Cons

Working for the public, sometimes it's good, sometimes,it's bad. Many times people get mad at the local folks when a lot of the times their problems have to do with things out of our control, like pricing, channel availability, etc. If someone has a gripe about Comcast, they may flag down any truck with the logo on the door and give that person an ear full.

Pros

The benefits are really good. Most of the folks that you work with are wonderful. The industry is very interesting. There was always something new so boredom never set in. There was a can-do attitude with the team. We always made it work.

Cons

Unfortunately, salary is a challenge for the level of work that is required. As a salaried employee, you can work all hours. This isn't unusual for other industries but it did go to extreme at times. Family life can suffer.

Pros

Comcast matches up to 6% for the 401k and you are totally vested as soon as you are eligible to use the plan. Their vision and other benefits are top notch and they are the same for all employees weather you are front line or leadership. You get free TV (all the channels) and Internet with drastically reduced Telephone cost. It comes out to over $200 worth of service that you get for around $20 very cool indeed.

Cons

We don't treat employees like customers, front line not treated as if they are important. Uninspired leadership with no vision and no passion leads to a workforce with no common goal and no real direction and nobody seems to be working to get there. There is significant lack of trust in the representatives to make important decisions and more and more things are constantly being taken away from the representatives. What's worse is with the amount of churn few people really notices the reduction of value in the position.
