Pros

I felt very engaged with my decision to work for Crown Castle. I felt my work product was very good and I'm sure that the company benefited from our mutual work together. I would be very happy to work with them again in any capacity, especially since they have an office in Franklin TN, and I live down the road in Athens, TN. GO CROWN- Beat American Tower!!

Cons

none, except they closed my office in Mahwah, NJ.

Pros

They let you have a lunch hour but even then you are constantly asked where you are and what's taking so long. It's like being in jail. Another pro is when you hit rock bottom I guess it's only up from there??

Cons

Where do I start. Management is terrible, it's the classic case of promote someone to a level where they cant do as much damage where they are. They rotate director roles so you end up with a moron running a department that has 0 experience in that field. Compensation is terrible and they fire you when you reach your salary range top. Tons of drama and fear to control you. They write you up if you dont drink the Kool aid. Turnover is at an all time high there. Now because of the bad mouthing from the people that left you have Crown looking like a joke within the industry. Also you are now stuck with the bottom of the barrel when hiring. I experienced first had they hiring notorious people that have reputations of taking money under the table and stealing company assets. They are also left with new hires that are not liked or respected in the industry. Just remember Crown you lay in the bed that you make.
