A Company too big to care about the "little people"

Pros

The people that I worked with were amazing, and took care of each-other, and were the hardest working people I have ever met. There were a lot of events that you could be involved in.

Cons

The upper management at this company only cares about money and the bottom line, they do not care about the employees that are making the money for the company. HR does not support the employees they are only there to cover for management. I have never felt so under valued by an employer.

Pros

Stability of a large, multi-national corporation. Good official communication and organizational infrastructure. You can shoot up like a rocket if you get in young and do their leadership programs.

Cons

After the Comcast merger, benefits became a little nickel-and-dimey (401K choices became more limited, for example.), and it became a much less creative, more corporate environment. I think as far as mergers go, my experience was probably pretty standard.

Pros

Good benefits. Strong brands. Nice perks for Universal Studios theme park.

Cons

Mgmt is self absorbed and don't allow innovation. Won't invest in new shows for the future. They're kind of obssessed with taking shows they currently have and playing them into the ground. You could say this of any media conglomerate.
