Under resourced, walled off from other teams, having to make do with inadequate support.
What did you like most about the interview process?
The overall discussion of the types of business problems the team is (supposed to be) working on.
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Lack of awareness of other teams' work, siloing of resources, and a coherent vision from the top would be a start.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Management needs to take a cold, hard look at what they're doing, how they allocate resources, and what the organization wide interactions are.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Everyone on my team is friendly, and they know their stuff - but they are consistently redirected to ad-hoc projects outside of their job description.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
No organization wide standards for interoperability among teams - and this leads to teams spending multiple quarters reinventing worse versions of the wheel. If Comcast is serious about modernizing its internal operations, they need to (correctly) identify talent and decisively adapt workflows.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Relative to similar positions in other companies in the same industry (machine learning and data science in telecom), Comcast pays far less and this is largely a factor of inadequate understanding by upper management of the skills employees have and types of business problems to apply them to.
