Pros

Competitive pay, great benefits, and overall they care about their employees wellbeing, job satisfaction and career growth. They are very progressive with diversity and inclusion and strive for pay equality and equal career opportunities across gender and ethnic backgrounds (which is awesome!).

Cons

It's unfortunate Comcast has a negative reputation in a lot of the community, but their working hard to turn that around. Sometimes working for Comcast can be irritating when you tell someone who you work for and the first thing they say is "Oh why are they so expensive!?", or something like that. To which I don't know, because that's not the area I work in, but it's irritating being associated with those questions right off the bat.

Pros

Decent salary and benefits Exposure to a broad range of technologies and a lot if interesting problems to solve.

Cons

It's a crapshoot - you could easily land in on of the numerous development teams filled with underpaid and unskilled developers and lead by inept management cohorts.
