Pros

Minimal structure so you are exposed to different parts of the business that you would normally not get to see. Best advice is to read the reviews for the last year.

Cons

Who you know or are related to will decide your fate here. It’s a toxic work environment with no work life balance with no organization led by incompetent managers. Very high stress because they micromanage but do not have experience which creates more setbacks. Poor compensation for the Charlotte area. A lot of talk about making things better but no action.

Pros

Many of the employees have been working together for a long time, most of them came from the initial merger between Lumen Technologies and Brightspeed. The general feel is good between peers and the friendships are great.

Cons

The company has terrible leadership and has treated merger employees as if we we were not a part of the company, even though we were the ones that stood up the new brand. Micromanaging leaders, they dont' trust or empower and caused a lot of friction by not backing employees. All values were lost in the merger.
