Pros

Great compensation and benefits, strong work life balance.

Cons

The politics in the company are almost unbearable. It is a speak when you are spoken to environment that feels like a throwback to the 1950's. Ideas and creative thinking are not encouraged.

Pros

You will get an experience. It's not necessarily effective experience that should be taken with you.

Cons

1. As a DevOps, Ops, Analyst you are a second class citizen. You will be treated with no respect for your time, or ability. You will take care of, and parent, developers, project managers, software delivery managers, production operations teams. While doing everyone's job for them, you will be devalued by your upper management. They will let your people rot from 20 to 0, you will pick up the slack, you will not get a promotion, you will not get paid more. A VP will tell you, you dont have the chops to do the job responsibilites that you are already doing (They have no clue on what they are talking about). I implore anyone IT/OPS (DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering, etc..) to stay away from this dysfunctional, developer driven, ``Engineering`` department. Do not believe any managers input on your technical ability at Charter/Spectrum.

Extremely Sad Response and Lack of Care of Employees

Pros

Pay and people on some of the teams

Cons

Just a number, no care for what the President is saying or the Governors of the States during the Pandemic. Do not care there are people being tested in their facilities and they could have the majority working from home and they are not allowing it. Truly just a number to this company. Lost a lot of respect for the GVP's and above especially the ones making the final decisions on the course of actions being taken or actually NOT taken.

We appreciate your concerns as we work together during these unprecedented times. As a FEMA Community Lifeline sector, with services are essential to hospitals, emergency first responders, government facilities, the news media and our communities, we help them to stay connected, flatten the curve and protect the country. Delivering these vital communications while supporting employees is our top priority. We recently made a number of changes to our operations that will help employees better manage through this challenge, including an additional 15 days of paid time off to be used for COVID-19 related needs, increased social distancing plans in all of our call centers and operations facilities, and the option for remote work for employees whose jobs allow them to work outside the office while still providing critical services. We thank you for all you are doing every day to support our customers and communities to ensure they remain both connected and safe.
