Pros

Good benefits, leadership appears to care about employees.

Cons

Action speaks louder than words. If you say you value your employees show them. There definite clicks that get recognized for just doing their job, while those that go above and beyond are never acknowledged.

Pros

They supplied good benefits. They're excellent in training their employees. Their resources were outstanding. They have a good understanding of their markets.

Cons

Extremely micromanaged. It was unfortunate that the majority of your time was spent on doing repeat reports in different formats for different managers who themselves couldn't clearly explain what they did. Very little respect for clients

Pros

A fast paced working environment with opportunities for professional development if you take the initiative. Pay and benefits are competitive.

Cons

As a large organization exiting the economic prosperity of the mid-90s, Cox still has it's fair share of limited value-add slackers and the real work tends to fall predominately on the high performers. Although the economic climate has forced management to take a more proactice approach in thinning the heard of slackers over the past few years.
