Pros

Fast paced company, with huge potential for growth and employee opportunities. Co-workers are committed and hard-working. Zayo hires qualified and experienced staff.

Cons

Focus on shareholder growth at the cost of employee satisfaction = difficult to retain top talent. Lack of empathy and understanding for and of employee needs makes this a very difficult place to work. Zero work / life balance. CEO is very difficult to work with. Chief of staff is very difficult to work with.

Pros

Excellent sales enablement, tools, and internal support. Leadership has done a good job creating an environment where Enterprise Account Executives can focus on selling instead of getting bogged down by administrative tasks. CRM data is clean, processes are organized, and responsibilities between Sales, Customer Success, and Account Management are clearly defined. It’s refreshing to work for a company that invests in the systems and structure needed to help its sales teams succeed.

Cons

Ongoing integration efforts following the Crown Castle Fiber acquisition mean some processes and systems are still evolving. As with most enterprise sales roles, building pipeline requires significant self-sourcing and prospecting across a large territory. The product portfolio is extensive, which creates a bit of a learning curve for new hires but also provides opportunities to solve complex customer challenges.
