Cons

- VERY disorganized, cheap company that will not hire more employees even when it’s necessary - strong disconnect with managers and senior managers - insane work load (you are given the responsibility of dealing with 1,800+ employees on your own) - terrible, unprofessional training (they take you into a conference room to be trained by a fellow co worker, no one in onboarding) - micro-management - high turn over - overtime is glorified - work load feels like a never ending cycle - you are told to ask questions and it may be ok to make mistakes until you actually and it becomes a problem - improper communication amongst co-workers / cliquey - Sr. managers make you feel incompetent and inadequate - Lack of determination of what true constructive criticism while explaining perception of low performance - Deliberately threatening to fire employees

Pros

There really are none now.

Cons

Peacock was a great place to work until the reorg last year. Once the NBC teams took over with their old school way of thinking and operating, the culture and energy shifted. They don’t think innovatively at all and have never done any of the things at scale that Peacock has done from a marketing standpoint but feel they have all the answers. If you’ve only worked at NBC your entire life, you definitely don’t have the tools it takes to run a successful streaming platform when you’ve been in a linear environment you entire career. Instead of being collaborative, they pushed loads of Netflix people out. Obviously people that know how to run a successful streaming platform and think that spending millions on out of home is the only marketing tool that will push the brand forward. Which is laughable. On top of being an excruciatingly painful place to work if you are creative since anything more than cookie cutter gets frowned upon, they recently went to 4 days a week in the office. They also have built a culture of just promoting their buddies over those that are actually doing the work at a high level. Favoritism for the unqualified is at an alltime high. They also changed benefits last year to a company where all my doctors I’ve went to for a decade and were always covered are now out of network.
