Pros

Gorgeous, unbelievable facilities; collaborative work environment; among the best and most dedicated group of IT professionals I've ever worked with

Cons

No one has the guts to tell the truth to the Senior Team (CEO & Directs). Everyone at the mid-senior executive level is myopically agenda driven with competing priorities. All efforts to expose critical gaps and weakness in strategy or execution is blocked at the mid-Sr management layer. The company has brought in consultants who are draining the very culture from this once great organization and binding everyone and everything in crippling - meaningless process. Add to that the hiring of completely ineffective and incompetent management within the IT organization at the Executive levels - and removing or allowing the loss of years of experience at the same time - is a recipe for disaster.

Hi, thank you for sharing a review! We're glad to know that you enjoy the flexibility, work-life balance and employee benefits that a career at Cox offers, and that you would recommend Cox as an employer. Cox's footprint and cross-industry impact do frequently necessitate agility with change, but we strive to offer a workplace experience that has the stability of a large company with the friendly community and innovation culture of a startup. And while our impact continues to grow, our values and mission remain the same: across our family of businesses, we're building a better future. We hope you feel that to be the case.

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.
