Clients and customers range from households to large enterprises and advertisers.

Locations and presence

Comcast also hires in the Philippines, including roles based in Pasig, Metro Manila with hybrid and night-shift setups listed in local postings.

Palpable Score

73.3

/ 100

Comcast is a good early-career entry point because the company advertises internships plus structured rotational tracks (including a 2-year CORE rotation and a 2-year post-master’s Rotational Leadership Program). Comcast is also more transparent on compensation than many large employers because multiple job postings include published pay ranges and clear benefits language. The score is held back by uneven candidate-reported timelines and the lack of published early-career outcomes like intern conversion rates, retention, or time-to-promotion.

Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

16.5

/ 20

The company runs a dedicated Early Career hub that routes candidates into internships, full-time rotational programs, and co-ops rather than forcing graduates into generic search.
Comcast advertises the CORE program as a 2-year, 3-rotation track across areas like cybersecurity, finance, and technology, with relocation support for participants.
The company keeps a formal co-op pipeline through a six-month partner program with Drexel University in Philadelphia, which signals recurring early-career intake beyond summer internships.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

13.3

/ 20

The company publishes clear accommodations contact details for the application and interview process and sets expectations around applying for a specific job posting rather than sending standalone resumes.
Comcast has a fairly consistent early-career interview shape in candidate reports, including resume screening, recorded video interviews, recruiter screens, and structured final interviews.
The company still has mixed candidate feedback on ambiguity in selection timing for internships and some roles, which reduces predictability even when interviews themselves are straightforward.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

14.5

/ 20

The company positions internships around business skills and leadership development, mentorship and executive exposure, volunteerism, and access to employee resource groups rather than project work only.
Comcast describes CORE as a rotational experience across different teams in a chosen field, which usually creates broader learning than landing straight into a single team on day one.
The company’s public detail is stronger for programs than for standard entry-level roles, so it is hard to verify how consistent onboarding and mentorship feel once early-career hires are placed into permanent teams.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

16.5

/ 20

The company publishes pay ranges on many job postings, including analyst roles that show a defined minimum and maximum range and the factors used to place offers inside the range.
Comcast lists concrete benefits that matter early in a career, including 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement, paid parental leave, and healthcare coverage.
The company posts explicit hourly base pay for at least some internships, which reduces the “apply first, find out later” pay problem for students.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

12.5

/ 20

The company frames internships as a pathway toward full-time employment and markets rotational programs that end in longer-term placement, but Comcast does not publish conversion or completion rates.
Comcast has mid-to-positive employee sentiment in large review aggregates, including a majority willingness to recommend working at Comcast and a mid-range “career opportunities” score that suggests progression is possible but uneven.
The company does not publish early-career retention, time-to-promotion, or cohort outcomes, and Comcast has also faced recent restructuring and job-cut news that adds uncertainty for long-run outcomes in some divisions.
