Pros

They will pay for some higher education expenses and employees would do well to take advantage of that. Tuition reimbursement ($5000 per year) is the best thing Cox has to offer and it helps employees to leave the company for a better position. Cox has a carefully balanced plan to make the work taxing enough that employees are left with little energy to look elsewhere along with paying just enough that they are willing to go on putting up with a lot of BS for quite a long while. A lot of time and energy is spent on PR and lip service is given to diversity and inclusion, but when you look at actions, it is a good old boys club.

Cons

Poor leadership permeates this company. Pettiness is standard. For example, leadership will follow people to the bathroom to validate that they are actually on a bathroom break. There are few opportunities for people who are not related to someone else. Raises are annual and do not keep up with cost of living increases and are not competitive. If you are in a customer facing position, be prepared to accept abuse from customers with a smile and do not expect leaders to treat you with dignity or respect.
