Pros

free cable good benefits good PTO [when you are allowed to take it]

Cons

This is a high pressure sales job. The goals are increased almost every month, the pay has gone down several times, and the customers are mostly angry, very angry! The equipment is mostly old. The departments do not communicate. This leads to more angry customers! At the end of the day I'm completely exhausted! [mentally. emotionally, and physically] My overall quality of life has been diminished due to this crappy job. Several new employees have said it best 'I can't believe what I'm expected to know, do and put up with for such a small amount of money!" Everyone I know in retail is looking for another job.

Hi, thank you for sharing a review! We're glad to know that you enjoy the flexibility, work-life balance and employee benefits that a career at Cox offers, and that you would recommend Cox as an employer. Cox's footprint and cross-industry impact do frequently necessitate agility with change, but we strive to offer a workplace experience that has the stability of a large company with the friendly community and innovation culture of a startup. And while our impact continues to grow, our values and mission remain the same: across our family of businesses, we're building a better future. We hope you feel that to be the case.

Pros

Learned alot with 20+ years with the company, fun place to work, meet great people, Awesome pay.

Cons

Management will throw you under the bus to save themselves, will not stick up for employees, supervisor yelling at team meetings, slamming things around and acting childish. Best micromanager out there.
