Business Outlook

Pros

The company is, for the most part, made up of great people who are driven to provide great quality content and products for our consumers. There are many opportunities to innovate in the industry and NBC Universal is not afraid to take risks and push the envelope on content and product development.

Cons

As with any large company, sometimes it can be a slow and difficult to affect widespread change. In the media industry this can be an issue in keeping up with competitors in the digital space as well as some of the smaller, more vertical palyers on the broadcast side.
