Vantaggi
Comcast's benefit plan minus its short term , long term disability and FMLA coverage are fine, The ability to purchase company stock at an discount is great. We have some great managers and supervisors locally.
Svantaggi
If you have a personal crisis and need time off, Comcast thru their short term disability program will fight you tooth and nail not to pay you or not to approve needed time off. I have personally experienced this. You will need a Doctorate Degree, and Law Degree to get what the promise you in terms of providing for you in the event you need time off from work for an extended period of time due to an illness or crisis. Comcast forces employees to prove I feel beyond normal means that their crisis is in fact valid. I was told by my local HR rep that Comcast has had too many fraud cases of FMLA and short disability abuse that they had to outsource to a new company. This new company challenges doctors recommendations and qualifications for suggesting claims. This is beyond what the FLMA law intended.
