      Pros

      Work Life Balance, lack of pressure. Hybrid Work Environment.

      Cons

      Lack of Direction and overall company objectives, it is a telecom company. Compensation also lesser than industry standards. Promotions take time.

      Pros

      Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

      Cons

      Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.
