Pros

Great workplace. Company provides free snacks and pop, and semi regular events like parties or catered lunch for everyone. There are some very smart people in lead positions that don't mind helping other engineers out when asked.

Cons

Hard to figure out how raises and promotions work, annual reviews don't really give much feedback on how to get that raise or promotion. This may have to do with how the economy has been doing lately.

Pros

Decent benefits, better facilities then smaller companies. High traffic websites equaled good work experience for a few years.

Cons

Hard work doesn't pay off - kissing butt to the right person does. I know this can be applied to most companies, but Comcast has a tremendous opportunity to take so many things to the next level, and if they are planning on it, the Philadelphia office does not communicate that back to our management then back to us. Career development is pretty much non-existent. I don't expect much from our management because no one is really helping them either. Figure out your 3 years goals yourself and how you can achieve them under their dime and move on. Otherwise you will slowly lose your skills.
