Pros

Profitable and growing company in telecom! That is a welcome scenario. Tremendous # of opportunities - both internal roles as well as customer/expansion projects Adding people as much as possible to keep up with growth Employees are friendly and hard working - willing to help each other out

Cons

Very intense environment where deadlines are aggressive (almost unreasonable). Everyone knows the importance of moving quickly but people can only do so much in a day. Systems and processes are evolving but struggling to keep up with business. A little more structure in some areas is needed to make us more efficient and productive. Benefits package is evolving and needs to keep pace with other offerings in the area.

Working at Zayo

Pros

Constant challenges and opportunities to develop your own skills but also to contribute directly to the success of the company. Great teammates to work with and management is always open to suggestions for improvement. A forward moving company full of forward moving people, the energy is addictive!

Cons

Since the company is growing so steadily, there is much work to be done. This is not a 9-5 coasting job.
