This week Loraine was among a group of journalists who got a preview tour of the new Comcast technology center. Apple and Google’s got nothing on us. The new building that will eventually hold 4000 workers has all the amenities top silicon valley campuses have – a state of the art building with worker friendly open spaces and private huddle spaces , adjustable standing desks, of course coffee everywhere, even foosball and artwork on every floor.
