They’re getting rid of hundreds upon hundreds of employees and all the work they used to do is supposed to be “absorbed” by those of us at HQ? It’s not like we’re already overworked, right? There’s always room for more. After all, we’re apparently... — read more

Comcast Layoffs
10/15 was a bloodbath across Comcast. Some Sr leaders, mostly staff. Severance packages for frontline are embarrassingly bad.
Divisions Layoffs Have Started
Emails about divisions layoffs started going out today. Unsure how many are affected.

Return to Office (Seattle, Washington)
Why is it that the 5G Engineering and Technology team gets to stay remote in Washington when the rest of us need to work in Philly? They don't even have an office to report to there. Is it because they have an AVP that is also privileged and gets... — read more
CNBC Newsroom Layoffs
Welp, some writers were informed today that since our crossover work with NBC is pretty much over, their services will no longer be needed on October 20th. Some really good people thrown into chaos. And the selfish part in me knows this will be... — read more

Any idea how many jobs they want to cut?
It sounds like the number could end up being pretty high. And we all know it won’t just be redundancies.
Comcast Layoffs - Any Additional News?
Do we think it's everyone from each division? That seems insane. A director told me today that the "carnage" will mostly be at the higher levels, but I can't confirm.
How to stay sane until restructuring is over?
It’ll be months before this is resolved, and by all accounts the cuts will be massive. That means a long stretch of stress and anxiety, right when keeping your job feels existential. The job market is already a horror show and only getting worse... — read more

Comcast is too pricey now

Versant
How's everybody feeling about this? Personally, I don’t know how I feel about working for a company that didn’t even exist two weeks ago. It’s exciting but also stressful not knowing what the future structure or roles will be. Some teams are already... — read more

Recently retired from CMCSA and am curious how HQ/Bishops Gate and divisions view the Charter / Cox merger news. Also, how is mgmt spinning the news?
What Versant really means
If you've listened to CNBC's lackluster explanation of the Verdant name and remain confused, I have some news for you. One of the proponents of Versant in the naming contest was advocating for "versant" not because of the mountain or hill slope... — read more
What did it cost to get multi-billionaire Michael Jordan on Peacock?
What did it cost to get multi-billionaire Michael Jordan on Peacock? I'm guessing it is a non-trivial percentage of the annual $1.4 billion for Peacock's NBA content. I won't lie, I do very much want to hear Michael Jordan's take on games, but I'll... — read more
