I took a job at granite because I graduated close to Covid. In hindsight, I should have been more picky. Granite will hire anyone with a pulse and this is seen with how poorly internal communication is. It was so frustrating being yelled at by customers because The internal teams don't understand complex technologies. The business model relies on our customers being equally as ignorant.
There's 3 weeks of "training" where they go over basics or telecom but nothing about ordering or ticketing repairs which is 99 percent of what you do. This leads to having to rely on internal teams to show you what to do, which as mentioned before, are less than helpful. We're encouraged to only solve problem if the customer only points them out. If they're being overcharged- it's not a problem until it is. You will be thrown under the bus. The COO himself says the best clients are the ones who don’t check the bill.
Management does not care about you. I had to cancel thanksgiving plans with my family as I was required to be in office while covid was rampant. There's no yearly raises. management touts 1.6 billion yet OPS has trouble paying their rent. There's disdain for those who want to WFH. There's a strange obsession with fitness as the COO made fun of those who like drinking beer and bowling one meeting. It's a thankless job where you will work off the clock. Despite being paid hourly, I was expected to answer emails off the clock for clients on the west coast.
