Pros

Opportunity to work with and learn from the best and the brightest, leading to unmatched career growth. Passionate about helping our customers while focusing on work that matters (bringing everyone, everywhere access to fast, safe, secure, and affordable broadband experiences). Remote work has significantly enhanced my quality of life as I get to spend more time with those that I care most about.

Cons

With the unfailing belief in 'better, better, never best', it can lead to taking on too many things at once. Leaders have been receptive to the feedback while ensuring that we are purposeful about what we do when and why.

Pros

Decent salary. You'll also quickly gain valuable experience in how not to operate on your next job: a lesson that will serve you well in future roles.

Cons

Old-fashioned work culture where you're expected to execute without question. Excessive overtime work, release cycles are chaotic, and there's little appetite for improving systems or sustainability, it's all about following orders rather than thinking critically.
