Pros

It was a great working environment at NBC Universal. I worked for a Owned and Operated station and was pushed to explore how to best use content online for our viewers. I got to work on exciting projects and the benefits were great.

Cons

Some people at the station had been in the television industry for a long time and were slow to adopt new ways of distributing of content, or new ways to connect with viewers online.
