Pros

They work well with employees and their families. There is always room to grow and improve within Charter Communications, the employers work well to help you achieve your goals

Cons

Hard to advance in the career beyond supervision. You may be expected to work on-call and that can require late nights. There is a lot of downsizing involved with Charter Communications.

Great income, flexibility, autonomy (if you earn it), solid product, easy to sell services, decent benefits, well recognized brand (can be a negative, too)

Cons

Long hours to make good money, management has too many things going on to be concerned with your success, good 'ol boy network

Pros

Benefits are pretty good and the employees are mostly friendly and hard working. Fair amount of training and opportunity for learning different aspects of the industry.

Cons

Management from director up are generally clueless about what it takes to attract and keep both customers AND talented employees. Very cliquey and they reorganize, layoff and relocate way too much which speaks to their lack of real direction and leadership and short-sightedness. Pay is ok, but bonuses not tied to performance of the individual, but on company growth as a whole. One has no real way to earn it based on performance. Long hours/days expected, but not rewarded, recognized or appreciated. Atmosphere of always worried about losing job (an attitude created and cultivated by management).
