Pros

One of the best reasons to join this team is that they build products which support the other NBCUniversal properties. You really are part of a bigger system, and you get to work on the infrastructure and things behind some of the biggest names and coolest brands.

Cons

This particular department appears to be devaluing technical innovation and high-end engineering resources. There seems to be an attitude that all engineers are created equal. However, while everyone who graduates med school is a doctor, many doctors specialize in a specific field. Likewise, while it's reasonable to expect most software developers to use common strategies and approaches, even a generalist has some degree of specialization, even if it's based primarily on what they worked on most recently.

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.
