NOT a great place to work

Pros

great benefits, lots of food perks

Cons

Staff seemingly friendly but many backstabbers, gossipers. No room for advancement, very lame, inexperienced middle management. Reminded me of high school....popularity contest. Laid back atmosphere but don't let it fool you; there is lots of drama going on in the background. Office very quiet because most employees are afraid to talk lest it be construed in a negative manner. Way too PC. Management encourages you to speak up but when you do, there goes your career. HR supports management no matter how badly they fail. If an employee is not liked, management writes you up for bogus, nit-picky reasons. Only favored employees EXCEED company expectations.

No regard of people

Pros

Pretty good benefits, decent salary, some good people to work with, can do what you want to if you suck up to the boss.

Cons

The company has no regard for the people that work there. If you suck up good enough, you can do virtually nothing and get paid for it. Cut throat business, and management practices. Total disdain, for their customers, with an attitude of " just get the money ". Management has the attitude of " we are the biggest in the nation, SO they will have to do business with us, so let's screw them ". The best description of this company, and the management thereof is; arrogant.

No Room for Growth

Pros

The company has a laid back working environment. Everyone seems friendly and helpful, but only when it comes to work. The only time you will hear someone talk is when ever someone needs assistance on a project. Besides that the office is pretty much silent. If you do not like talking than this would be a company for you. Besides that the best part about this company is the free snacks in the break room.

Cons

The downside is the office is split into two sides. They separate the majority of the contractors on one side and the full time workers on the other side. This gives a bad vibe in the office and it is definitely something you can feel. The workers seem to have their own groups that they all hang out with on a regular. It is pretty difficult to really make yourself feel part of the company when these groups don't really welcome you. The room for growth here is close to none. If there is a job available it is already taken by somebody that the hiring manger has discussed with prior to the job being posted. The business is pretty much stagnant and I wouldn't be surprised if it were the same at any other telecom company. Funny because for a communications company this office does not talk at all. If you are someone who likes to do the same thing every single day in front of a computer than this is the job for you.
