Pros

Very cool company to be apart of. Always fun events to go to and great people to work with. NBC products are always topnotch and maintain high viewership in a competitive market

Cons

Management could do a better job engaging lower level employees just starting their careers out who are eager to move up within the company. More access to training or opportunities to advance.
