Pros

The company is somewhat stable. It is growing very quickly and job openings are plentiful (due to fast growth and high employee turnover).

Cons

The company was bought by Cincinnati Bell I'm 2010. Ever since then the environment has become very negative. Upper and middle management do not make an effort to get to know employees or their jobs. Yet they expect one person to do the job of many. Long hours are expected and demanded. No respect is given to the employees. You really feel like a number there now. It was not like that before the CB merger. The CEO, Gary Wojtaszek, routinely posts things to the company blog that are extremely negative. Instead of listening to employee concerns, he regularly demeans them and tells us if we don't like it to hit the door (in those words). He spends most of his time in Cincinnati and has made no effort to get to know employees in the other locations. The upper and middle management share the same views and do not treat employees any better (with a very few exceptions). In two weeks time, I have watched four long-term employees resign, several others have left over the past two years and most others are looking for other jobs. Even though the company is growing and making money, no one feels safe or secure in their jobs.

Pros

They offer hybrid / remote roles.

Cons

I’m trying to be as honest and fair as possible here. To start off, the on-boarding process was non existent. You are expected to be an expert in how the company is structured and where you can find proper resources from the get go. Standards for any part of the company are non-existent. They are really disorganized and their excuse is that they’re a “small company..” everyone is really stressed all the time. people are not open to helping you and on the contrary 9/10 you get hostile folks. this is mainly because people are overworked by the lack of guidance and the company has a history of letting go of people. Seems like when things start going wrong higher ups are very quick to blame the people below them.everyone is desperate to show their value so they don’t get fired. This creates a mindset that there is a finite amount of work/solutions that can be provided. Often creating non productive competition between teams. If you don’t mind this stuff then you are good to come work here. But if you care about company culture then you will most likely be disappointed.
