Pros

The atmosphere was casual and pleasant in my office, which was dominated by software engineers and QA folks.

I had an excellent mentor, who provided helpful guidance on new projects, which I found to be very important towards promoting intern success.

I was even allowed to work remotely for a while after I moved halfway across the U.S.

Cons

Comcast is huge. HR-related issues are much more bureaucratic than at a small company, such as changing system passwords. You're often put on hold for the helpdesk for extended periods of time, which lowers your productivity.

Advice to Management

Keep up the good work! My manager was personable, had reasonable and realistic goals for my work, and was incredibly open to new ideas.
