Pros

None. Horrible place. Horrible leadership. Horrible HR

Cons

I worked here for 9 yrs, never once had a write up or anything. As soon as i was put under a specific manager that had a hatred for me since day one, he terminated me. After several attempts to resolve the harsh treatment i was getting from my manager to the ethics board and HR. Nothing happened. I even tried applying for other positions to get away from him and he purposely made that impossible for me. My manager would ask me if i had a learning disability which is completely wrong, and all the harassment is unfair. Im a single mother of 2 kids and my kids only have me for income. Thanks to this devious lying horrible manager, my job of 9 yrs is no more. So thank you cox for NOT protecting me against his retaliation.

Pros

They send you a paycheck

Cons

They will fire you with out paying your earned bonus, with out offering severance or help with cobra 4 days after the FDA approved a vaccine even if you are a breastfeeding mom. They are giving 2 weeks to us to get all medical documents gathered and then will get legal team to review to see if you are eligible for an exemption EVEN THOUGH I WORK 100% from home!!!

Thank you for your feedback. We prioritize keeping our employees, customers and communities safe. After hearing from federal, state and local health officials, we know that increasing vaccination rates aligns with our value of “leading by example” – it’s the best way to protect ourselves and those in our communities and return to a more normal life. We believe that we have a responsibility to help stop the spread of the virus, and we’re happy to do our part. We understand that not everyone will agree with our decision, but we appreciate your feedback. Thank you again for taking the time to write this review.

Pros

New building is great, amenities are nice.

Cons

DT was a great place before the Cox takeover. Culture is getting toxic. Hire the wrong people as managers in some cases, who don't exemplify decent values.
