Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We view our employees as our most important asset and the differentiator that sets us apart from our competition. As part of our integration with Level 3 we took actions to harmonize the compensation philosophies between the two companies, moved towards a “Pay for Performance” philosophy while remaining competitive in the marketplace. As a current employee if you would like to discuss specific concerns you can contact us at CTLHRActionTeam@lumen.com.

Pros

Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

Cons

Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.
