High turnover and low pay with unstable expectations

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

None. They are known for firing employees to lower costs. Additionally the President’s known outlook is to avoid any kind of raises as it is “money out of his pocket”. Max raise is 4% regardless of environmental or job performance factors.

Cons

High turnover. Low compensation compared to the industry. Changing expectations without any warning. Also you feel like working for Spectrum is sucking the money from the elderly to rich folks pockets.

Pros

Salary was good, that is all.

Cons

Unprofessional community leadership team. However, it is the Corporate Leaders that are bullies, harass you constantly, have absolutely no respect for employees. You feel as though you are under a microscope from the moment you enter the building. Worst company I Have every worked at
