Director-level leadership is excellent—very knowledgeable, strategic, and supportive. They drive the team effectively, provide clear direction, and foster a culture of accountability and growth. Their ability to navigate challenges and keep the team aligned is a major strength of the organization.

Cons

No major concerns at the moment, as director-level leadership is proactive and handles challenges effectively

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.
