Comcast NBCUniversal Named #2 on the Best Workplaces in the Bay Area by Fortune

2 months ago

By Sonya Echols, Vice President of Human Resources Comcast California

To determine the 2021 Best Workplaces in the Bay Area list, Fortune analyzed confidential survey feedback from more than 44,000 Bay Area employees. Based on survey responses from Comcast’s employees, the workplace culture was rated among the best in the Bay.

We received this honor, in large part, because of how employees feel about the job we are doing as a company in key aspects, including the extent to which we create a Great Place to Work For All™. Eighty-five percent of the evaluation is based on what employees said about their experience of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of Comcast, no matter who they are or what they do. 

At Comcast, we believe in investing in our teammates. All our employees have individual development plans (IDPs), that help them maintain focus on their growth and development. We embrace diversity of background, perspective, culture, and experience throughout every aspect of our business.  

We continue to build understanding within our teams and company about Diversity, Equality and Inclusion and we are honored to be recognized for this in the Bay Area! We always look through a lens of diversity and that could be diversity in background, ethnicity, gender, experience— but we really appreciate and seek out people who are not alike, because that’s how Comcast achieves its full potential.

Here at Comcast, we also encourage our employees to join an Employee Resource Group (ERG). There are eight ERGs that reflect the communities we serve and each of our employees is an important part of that. Our ERGs are helping employees on personal and professional development, product development and support, and volunteer support for our local communities. Great Place to Work analyzes these experiences relative to each organization’s size, workforce make up, and what’s typical in our industry and in the Bay Area.

Here is what employees are saying:  

“Balancing working from home with 2 adults in the house and two young children isn’t easy so I’m thankful for having support from my supervisor and leadership at Comcast! #Ilovemyjob”

“Comcast’s commitment to us as employees has really shined during COVID-19. From extra sick leave to care for ourselves and others, time for childcare, to just understanding and accommodating all of our unique situations, they’ve been a best-in-class employer.” 

“As a mom of a preschooler, Comcast has supported me throughout the pandemic. When Comcast says family comes first, they really mean it.” 

“It has a feel of a small family–owned business. You can feel the owner’s passion for their brand and products, but you also feel their love for the people that makes their business succeed day in and day out.”  

“Comcast is the best company I’ve worked for. I feel supported by my team and the company.”

Public Safety Power Shutoff

Winter Storm Creates Power Outages and Impacts Comcast Services.

Powerful Winter Storm Creates Power Outages and Impacts Comcast Services

An “atmospheric river” winter storm has brought heavy rain, high winds, flash floods, avalanche warnings and extensive power outages to much of Northern California.

The storm has created impacts from the Sierra to Fresno, including the Bay Area and throughout numerous coastal communities. The system is expected to continue bringing heavy rain and wind to the area through Friday.

Numerous communities are experiencing power outages and thousands were told to evacuate in the Santa Cruz, California region.

Comcast services require commercial power to operate. Internet and video, as well as landline and even mobile phone services for homes and businesses, may stop functioning within hours after the commercial power is shut off.

Comcast understands this disruption to services can have a major impact on people’s lives and businesses, especially during the global pandemic.

The safety of our communities and employees is our utmost priority and Comcast takes special care during storms to ensure public safety. Once commercial power is restored, we will restore Comcast services that have been affected as quickly as possible in accordance with public safety and regulatory guidance.

Here are a few things you can do to stay informed:

  • Confirm your contact information at xfinity.com/myaccount—We will use this information to contact you if we expect a service disruption caused by a planned power outage. You can also use My Accountto check if your service has been restored.
  • Comcast Business customers can check their My Accountapp or the Comcast Business Status Center to get information and valuable updates.
  • Download your favorite shows and movies for offline viewing—With the Xfinity Stream app, you can watch shows and movies offline in case you lose power.
  • Download the Xfinity Connect App to receive Xfinity Voice calls via your mobile phone—Xfinity Voice customers can make and receive calls with their Xfinity phone number using their mobile phone.
  • Visit the Comcast California Blogwhere we will post information, updates and answers to commonly asked questions. On the blog, we’ve launched a special PSPS web page where you can get additional information.
  • Follow us on Twitter — our handle is @ComcastCA and we post valuable updates regularly.

Even if power is off, Comcast’s team never stops working for you. From our family to yours, we hope you remain safe.
