Pros

Free beverage all day great perks, Summer Fridays for almost 3 months (being able to finish at 1:30 pm), good location, some of their employees are very valuable

Cons

Very corporate environment with very little room for success unless you are very political. The management is not uniform and your experience at NBC can be absolutely different depending on your manager. Different areas of the business have different cultures, different HR departments and leaders, causing flexible hours for some employees but not for others depending on the area you work for amongst many other disparities across departments. Too many people are seen to be getting senior jobs without the knowledge or skills that the role requires and the junior people don't feel safe to speak up being afraid of retaliation. Managmenet made my personal and professional experience at NBC very negative, and this was reported to HR. Although employees are entitled to have an exit interview when leaving the company, HR never approached me for mine.
