It was really interesting to learn direct response marketing. My group worked on specific mailers. The scale and data are HUGE. It's crazy and this scale makes it very fun. Overall, Comcast is a good company and the internship program is full of friendly students and put together well.

Cons:

I wish I got to do more creative work. There is a big emphasis on data.

Advice for other students:

Know math and excel, even for marketing.
