Pros

Universal is a large company - with ability to transfer to many different departments and there are many different jobs avaiable, ability to advance is really up to you as you can choose to become a trainer, then a lead and so on and so forth,the friendly coworkers and variety of different personalities are refreshing and it's easy to meet someone you get along with, the nice benefits and discounts to several different places outside of Universal are a nice perk as well as having Fairwinds on site and there are many resources for just about anything you can think of.

Cons

The cons are that some of the management frankly isn't qualified or screened well, some of them are very immature and thus act immaturely and make very poor decisions. The HR department is a nightmare a lot of the time. No one seems to know what they are doing in the offices and you will end up walking the span of the park before you are even directed to the correct building. You are reprimanded for every small thing that you do wrong (even not smiling -- strange, i know) but this depends on the management as they all vary.

Pros

Great perks and benefits! Free theme park tickets, cable, peacock subscription. Good place for interns

Cons

Entry level pay is very poor and not sustainable. Lot of politics when it comes to promotions and it is based more on relationship with management rather than actual performance. Upper management just takes all your work and presents as their own. Fake it till you make is at every level of this organization. Hired people as remote and now is laying everyone off.
