Pros

Very good company overall with lots of room for movement up within any given vertical or laterally within the engineering world. Matching % for 401k, good health insurance, free employee services.

Cons

Currently going through residual pains from TWC/Charter/Brighthouse merger, will take some time for processes and procedures to solidify and be truly functional and streamlined for the employees. Politics reign currently, everyone is trying to justify their own existence sometimes with no real point other than attempting to create a self fulfilling prophecy however; this is to be expected overall given the current state. Must be able to adapt quickly and deal with politics even in technical roles until things finally calm down and begin to get better.

Pros

None except the free coffee and that’s it. I honestly don’t have anything good to say about this company. They don’t care about you.

Cons

This is really not a company that cares about their employees. They micro manage you down to a bio break. They have so many chiefs that literally there is no room for a regular employee. The environment is disgusting. They have bugs everywhere. You desk share and honestly Your a glorified button pusher. The pay is below average and I mean below. Very little vacation time and you have to prove Your dying if you leave early. They will threaten you that you’ll be fired for anything. I stood up for myself and quit because their vision of office politics is let’s stick our heads in the sand and hope for the best and let’s give these inexperienced people power to yell at everyone. They are not honest with customers and I was actually told to lie about services working again and say Spectrum fixed something if something that did not work all of a sudden works. They nickel and dime their customers. Lots of older people pay for things they don’t even know how to use.

Pros

Pay was good. $34 an hour work only 40 hours a week.

Cons

No benefits. The tempory position was supposed to lead to a full-time position, however, the contract was canceled after one month. Direct sales are difficult to recruit for. People do not want to go door to door to sell cable.
