Great company, but spends more on acquisitions than its own talent

Pros

I have worked for this company for almost 12 years. Eleven of them were in the West Division in three departments. I've heard great things about what the company is about while working at the Division level. Everyone wanted to get to the National level from there. But... my attitude changed at the National level.

  • Good benefits
  • Can't beat free Xfinity Services
  • Great training ground if you want to venture out to other companies
Cons

NETO - National Engineering and Technical Operations is run poorly, and the culture sucks. The culture is different here than at the Division level.

If you want to earn money, then look for a position at the Division or Regional levels.

Salaries are very low compared to other engineering positions at other companies.

Comcast states that their salaries for engineers are comparable to others. This is true in the cable business but not for engineers in non-cable businesses.

Advice to Management

If you want to keep your talent pool, pay them like other companies do.
