Pros

I met some good people through out my time there. None of them stayed there very long.

Cons

Zayo expects the world from you and gives nothing in return. If you enjoy being taken advantage of you'll enjoy working here. If it's important to you to feel respected and valued as an employee, don't consider working at here. Zayo will suck you dry and once they do that they'll still expect more from you while paying you far below market value with no hope to receive raises. Not only that but they'll continue to string you asking by promising bonuses to offset the low salary and they will never deliver. There's a reason young people can move into management so quickly... because no one who has experience in the industry will stick around and deal with the abusive culture. This means there is no foundational knowledge among leadership and things are in a constant state of chaos. Management will laugh this off by saying "the only constant at Zayo is change." Long hours are expected, your personal time outside of the office isn't respected and pay is far too low to warrant these expectations. This isn't Wall Street. Stop expecting employees to work like it for below market pay. Start to treat employees with some respect and learn to value them. A company is nothing without its employees. Zayo doesn't care as long as the executives get their money. The culture is driven by greed and the contaminated roots grow rotten fruit in the form of an extremely toxic culture. There's a reason Zayo has so many negative reviews. It's not just because of disgruntled ex-employees... It's because people know they are worth more and don't want to let others fall into the trap that is Zayo. Consider yourself warned.

Pros

Excellent sales enablement, tools, and internal support. Leadership has done a good job creating an environment where Enterprise Account Executives can focus on selling instead of getting bogged down by administrative tasks. CRM data is clean, processes are organized, and responsibilities between Sales, Customer Success, and Account Management are clearly defined. It’s refreshing to work for a company that invests in the systems and structure needed to help its sales teams succeed.

Cons

Ongoing integration efforts following the Crown Castle Fiber acquisition mean some processes and systems are still evolving. As with most enterprise sales roles, building pipeline requires significant self-sourcing and prospecting across a large territory. The product portfolio is extensive, which creates a bit of a learning curve for new hires but also provides opportunities to solve complex customer challenges.
