Pros

Overall the co-workers, courtesy service and health benefits 401k etc.they do care about their customers and impact on the community, such as comcast care day etc.

Cons

They change too many things last minute, there is way too much of an emphasis on sales.you are expected to attempt to sell on EVERY call, yet get paid significantly less then the sales department, who are treated like the favored child, with sundays off GUARANTEED, there department closes at 10pm while care closes at 12am, and on saturdays they are closed after 6 or 8 i recall and care is low and behold until 12am. You are bombarded with calls, there are no days where u get even more then 10 secs between calls,I used to have a bottle of water at my desk ( no food or other drinks allowed if not bottled) and could not even open it to take a sip if i wanted to have good stats.Also, they tell you you will change shifts every 3-4mnths yet as of january going on August there was 7months with no shift change, and there was no warning beforehand.this significantly affects you as even though you can swap shifts with fellow co-workers this is only if done 3days beforehand and if they even want to take your shift, which with the poor selection of shifts they have fr the majority of the workers is highly unlikely.The job is a stress zone only take it while looking for something better.

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.
