Comcast

Part of a big, audacious initiative. OK leadership, excellent pay, excellent work/life balance, good co-workers, great direct manager, interesting work.

Some smart, jerky people, weak management principles, managers who aren't good managers (just smart), cranking out new features with mediocre quality, too many design shortcuts in favor of faster releases, challenges getting adoption of breakthrough ideas due to risk-aversion.

Take your job to focus on people seriously; your job is not to be the smartest person; it's to mentor, coach, and enable others.

Embrace risk; reward people for making decisions without running to you. Encourage managers and teams to cooperate with each other without escalating to you.
