Pros

Coworkers, lunch time, break time, and time to go home. Was once a great place to work, but Level3 has ruined any joy & pride there once was.

Cons

Incredibly inept leadership Non-existent teamwork Favoritism is rampant...the good old boy network runs deep. Pay raise is only for the chosen few...repeat favoritism. No direction or structure...the only constant. Resources are provided to the chosen few...so they can shine.
