Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Honesty and integrity are pillars in our Company’s Unifying Principles, and we take them very seriously. We expect all of our employees to uphold these values at all times, whether interacting with someone inside or outside the organization. Additionally, one of our strengths is the diversity of our people, and we are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive culture. We are very proud of the progress we have made and for the public recognition we have received for our efforts, including being named by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers for Diversity in 2020.

Pros

Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

Cons

Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We value your input. We're disappointed to hear about your experience at Lumen. Unfortunately, at times, restructuring, reorganizations, or realignment to business realities is needed to drive our continued transformation and company growth. These decisions are difficult and not something we take lightly. Lumen understands the impacts these events have on our employees and provides support and guidance through the challenging transitions. Please reach out to us at CTLHRActionTeam@lumen.com if you would like to discuss anything further. We're glad you value our medical benefits and AI integration. Thank you again for your feedback. We appreciate your hard work!
