Pros
There are so many opportunities to work and learn beyond your department. There's always room to shift between cable networks, since NBC Universal owns a handful of them. They're all very reputable and very entertaining. Personally, I prefer entertainment over informational programming, so this is the place to be. Although rewards are few and in between, despite having a great performance quarter, I still love it here. In exchange for little reward, there is also little pressure and stress while working. But the need to succeed is still there, there is a great balance for the work ethic the company is searching for.
Cons
NBC Universal is like the parent that never paid enough attention to their children. So if the child got a billion straight A's, there's barely a pat on the back. So the main downside is the lack of reward and support from management when a job is done well. That downside obviously stems from the fact that NBC Universal is a very large company where everyone can get lost in the giant sea of employees. The lack of attention that the big wigs give to their employees is not so pleasant, but then again that might drive people to do a better job and to outshine.
