Pros

Overall great business model for residential customers and bringing fiber to under served areas in the 20 states footprint. The C level leadership is strong and committed to the company's growth and employee's success. Excellent pay!

Cons

Enterprise & Wholesale (Business Side) do not have the right senior leadership to help execute and grow the business side of Brightspeed. It has turned into a Windstream posse trying to do the same initiatives or items that Windstream did. No idea or concept that is not born from the minds of a Windstream manager is even given a second thought. Not sure the Windstream model is what Brightspeed Business should be striving for. No opportunity for growth unless you are part of the Windstream Posse.

Pros

The few Managers that care about their employees

Cons

Morale at all time low, along with a very anxious culture. "Leadership" with no leadership skills, no processes in place, firedrills. Lack of listening to employees that have ways to win. Too many 'yes' folks and not enough, 'is this right for employees and the business' folks. People in higher up positions that shouldn't be. Complete and total lack of accountability on upper managements part. Everything is shoveled down to others with demands to work weekends and be on call 24/7/365. Unrealistic goals constantly set that make no logical sense - the data even shows this. No raises, no bonuses (except for management, maybe) due to poor 'leadership' over past years. New 'leadership' is operation based, so anyone doing any actual work is now drowning in reports that get looked at once then they change their mind about what they want. Utterly ridiculous and shameful.
