Pros
Some good people left, but just hanging on for retirement or severance. Might be a good place to get experience before jumping to a better performing telecom company.
Cons
Company has grown too rapidly to adequately integrate newly acquired assets. This company is a sinking ship strangled by incompetent middle management that were relics left over from past acquisitions gone awry. Anchoring company to the bottom of the ocean is a corporate headquarters in Monroe, LA...top ranked telecommunications (or any other industry) talent won't relocate to city that by many accounts is dangerous and public education options for children limited. The incompetents that run the show in Monroe reward incompetence and strangle productivity and ingenuity with arcane policy, HR webinars and 4 month long performance reviews, that were a relic from the 80's, but only exist today to serve as an tool for which management to use when the inevitable day comes that revenue has fallen short and layoffs are required and some means is required to eliminate the low performer. Save some dignity and leave before they pull the plug on this dinosaur or continue to slowly grind away your benefits one-by-one.
