Great Part-time / Remote Flexibility

Data processor

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I took this role so that I could work while providing better support for my family. So far, I'm very happy with the flexibility that it's offered me and really love the team I work with. I get to work independently, but there are always teammates happily willing to answer any questions. My boss is very nice and I love that we aren't overloaded with meetings.

Cons

The hourly pay rate is very low for my current role and (as expected) there are no benefits or PTO. I consider the flexibility to help compensate for the low wage, though it would be nice to earn just a bit more.

Amazing Co-Workers, Terrible Pay and Benefits

Business Outlook

Pros

Some of the best people I ever worked with were at Metronet. Humble, funny, and determined were all the characteristics you would see among the crew. Everyone came from different backgrounds and brought that experience with them to Metronet. It really made a difference when you were having a bad day.

Cons

First, rampant nepotism occurs throughout the business. Low level, unqualified people hired through nepotism have secured higher positions or made up positions throughout the company. Highly qualified seniors have been looked up upon favor because of nepotism. Second, all Fiber Engineers are highly underpaid for their position and the amount of work produced. The company is getting deal by underpaying their production line. High production numbers per month from a low paying crew. Third, all reviews of the company is a cover up. All reviews are pressured by AR for new onboarding members.
