American Tower reviews

They are cheap, don't even tell you that you need to travel for your job and makes you travel 50% of the time and there are people at director level who tells you that lunch money won't be reimbursed even if it is $5 in total!! The worst part is HR does nothing about that. Very discriminating culture in finance. To make it worst they do not even pay business travel bills after months and months. Horrible experience ever.

I should have known better than to accept when I was offered my position and attempted to negotiate a minute pay increase. I was told, "It's non-negotiable," which pretty much sums up working at American Tower. From the day I started until the day I left, they were concerned about numbers (as in more pay for upper management and horrible salaries from middle-management down). CEO Jim Taiclet earned more than $12 MILLION in 2013; Chief Financial Officer Tom Barlett earned more than $4.5 MILLION in 2013; President Steven Marshall earned more than $4.2 MILLION in 2013; Exec. VP William Hess earned more than $4 MILLION in 2013; and Exec. VP Edmund Disanto earned more than $3.8 MILLION in 2013. The company scrimps in regard to across-the-board company salaries - again for middle management and below - and tends to hire fresh-out-of-college graduates who will work for pennies on the dollar - only to leave at the first growth opportunity. As for customer service, I worked with great people, who cared about the industry and client goodwill; however, with the limited resources (as in too few people for too great a workload), staff just could not provide the "premium" level of service on which American Tower supposedly prides itself. It is a shame that American Tower does not understand the simple concept, "You get what you pay for." Their executives seem to ba$k in the glow of that knowledge.
