Pros

I can confidently say that Lumen Technology is one of the best workplaces I've had the pleasure of being a part of. The work-life balance is exceptional, allowing employees to recharge and maintain their personal well-being. The compensation package is highly competitive, with salaries that reflect current market rates. What truly sets Lumen Technology apart, however, is the recognition and encouragement provided by managers. They actively support employees in upgrading their skill sets, fostering a culture of continuous growth and development. I'd like to extend special gratitude to my lead, and manager who shared their expertise and provided invaluable support in all aspects of my work and encourage me to upgrade my skills by sharing their knowledge. My super manager, and director consistently recognized my hard work and motivated me to push beyond my limits. Their leadership and guidance played a significant role in my professional growth, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to have worked with such an exceptional team. Regards, Paul Jerry

Pros

work life balance, excellent time off so long as manager doesn’t micromanage/track and limit FTO, nice people, leadership has turned the business around.

Cons

No pay raises even with great performance review (5years with zero raise) No career growth/progression - been on a high-performing team for 5 years and not one person on the team has been progressed or promoted during that time. Little opportunity for career advancement and growth New jobs within the company are going to external hires, not much grwoth for current employees
