Pros

Good for getting your foot in the door. Co-workers are very nice.

Cons

Not much acknowledgement of expertise. I have seen engineers get moved to the call center to fill open positions.

Thank you for talking the time to share your review. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and shifts in our business, we have tried to ensure that all employees are able to have a full, productive work day, and continue to grow and learn to their full potential. Rather than having little to no work, employees are getting a chance to help sides of the business that need it during this time- this is not a normal practice, but again an adjustment due to the pandemic. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our Talent Management team at talentmanagement@granitenet.com to discuss further.

Pros

The work (at least in my department) is very fulfilling, and I actually enjoy it. Lower management actually cared about those under them. Good employee resource groups (LGBTQIA one, women's one, multiple fitness ones, others). Really good 401k contribution match %. Free 24/7 gym for employees. Business casual dresscode. Location is right by the T and not too far from the highway. They also do lots of stuff for charity, if that's a thing you're into.

Cons

Very little upward mobility for Ops staff, despite what they tell you before you come onboard. Salaries are very low for the area, especially considering the importance of the work; it's almost like working for a charity. Departments (and even different teams in the same department) do not communicate with eachother effectively, if at all. Upper management will throw any and everyone under the bus - as others have said, if you're not in Sales they don't care in the slightest about you. Absolutely abysmal response to the current COVID-19 issues - didn't even send people home after someone at the company tested positive for it until five days after the fact. Benefits other than the 401k matching are not great. Parking lots are almost always full.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We are glad that your work is fulfilling and you feel valued. We always strive for a great employee experience and culture, and continue to do so as we take valuable input from reviews. We care about each of our employees, and we're sorry to hear about your perception and concern about the COVID-19 response. We take this situation very seriously, like other companies, and obeyed orders from the Governor as soon as the work from home order was put in place. I would recommend you reach out to the Talent Management team to explore opportunities for growth as an operations employee, as we have many resources available. Please email TalentManagement@granitenet.com for further discussion.
