Pros

Decent Pay, Management and roles in state of flux due to purchase of Embarq (FKA Sprint Local Division - United Telephone systems) and Qwest.

Cons

Lots of layoffs, Lots of flying by seat of the pants. Dealing with details and rules comes off the cuff This company is managed by a good ol boy Louisiana network as if the company is still a little rural telco.

Pros

Ability to work remotely, wanting too share knowledge or learned skills with AI.

Treat people more like independent contractors and don't have centralized places to find information that it needed. There SharePoint sites are not easy to navigate.
