Pros

Good benefits. Most worker bees are nice and willing to help each other.

Cons

Some management is self consumed with their own promotion at the cost of quality work. When something doesn't go right, they are quick to place blame on one of their subordinates even if this was something caused out of their own decision. In short, often times there is no right decision the subordinate could've made. It really comes down to if the manager does not like the outcome they will look for someone to blame rather than take ownership.

Pros

I had a great experience and benefitted from great leadership, progressive growth opportunities, and exceptional colleagues. The company cares about its employees, and offers exceptional benefits.

Cons

The recent news of the merger (ok, let's be honest...acquisition) by Charter has many people worried about the future and preparing for the worst. There will undoubtedly be cultural changes and I know many people will be frustrated by the new norm.

Pros

Great work/life balance, culture and benefits. Work from home. Unlimited PTO.

Cons

Merging with Charter this year. If I still have a job after the merger, I'll be losing unlimited PTO, WFH, culture and who knows about work/life balance. Some may be asked to move to CT. At the end of 2024 the company offered a generous VSP. Knowing the upcoming severance packages we may be offered by Charter, some of us feel betrayed.
