Pros
Local leadership earns a solid B plus. They are supportive, approachable, and generally on point. The benefits are strong and the pay is above average for the industry. One of the biggest highlights is the people. Coworkers really make the job enjoyable. Time flies when you are working with a solid crew, doing something meaningful, and having fun while doing it. Perks like free internet and TV including all premium packages, a company vehicle, provided tools, and a uniform allowance all go a long way in making the job comfortable and sustainable. Overall, I truly wish I could have stayed longer. If the opportunity to return ever comes around, I would be happy to come back.
Cons
Executive leadership, on the other hand, needs a complete overhaul. There is a clear disconnect at the top that affects long term direction. I would have liked to see more aggressive competition, especially with fiber rollout, modernized field equipment, and streamlined product offerings to stay sharp in the market.
