Pros

Somewhat competitive pay Some managers & leads are very well-qualified and do a great job; however, executive leadership and corporate policy limits their overall ability to make positive, influential changes as needed.

Cons

Showing little to no growth quarter to quarter (wouldn't be surprised if the company is acquired by a larger, more successful telecom or cable company in the next 2-3 years) High turnover Very unstable Little opportunity for growth Disorganized Poor end-product (extremely slow internet service)

Pros

Good benefits with remote work

Cons

Super unstable, coworkers getting laid off with no notice. Outsourcing jobs to India. The remaining employees expected to pick up the extra work.
