Stay for the benefits but tread lightly.

Pros

Crown Castle can be a really great place to work if you keep your head down and do as you're told. Company outings are fun. Benefits are top notch.

Cons

You should prepare to absorb job responsibilities from your co-workers at any time with no increase in salary or title. Many departments have an unprofessional work culture where harassment (sorry, it's true!) is tolerated and often covered up. Romantic relationships in the office are the norm and seem to be encouraged, even. Business performance has been steadily declining and I wouldn't be surprised if layoffs are around the corner. There has been a constant negative vibe in the office, especially over the past 6-12 months.

Pros

90 to 95% of Crown's income is contractually obligated at the beginning of the year. Crown compensates it's employees well and there is job security once you are established as a trusted employee. Crown is a small company with only 5,000 employees, yet is in the top 100 of enterprise value of publicly traded companies. Good benefits and time off is encouraged for work life balance.

Cons

There is not much upward mobility. Management positions will mostly go to those with management experience. This isn't a fast growing company with lots of opportunities. The growth is modest and lots of management positions go to outside hires. There is almost zero diversity in the workforce and upper management. It is a white man's world.
