Pros
The Original SuddenLink was an awesome startup like environment. They ran lean, which means the folks who worked at SuddenLink long term were very talented, because in a lean organization you can tell if someone was sandbagging. All of this means that you can focus on doing your job well, and others did well theirs to make this a well oiled machine. An "A-Team"
Cons
Altice (France) came in and bought SuddenLink, and Cablevision to Create AlticeUSA. Many layoffs later, Cablevision has taken over most of the Management, and kept their antiquated Management Processes and Slow Velocity. Things get worse when all of the billing IT is outsourced to Amdocs who offshores as much of the work as possible. Ahhh, we now see the Master Plan.... You get the picture, and now I realize why Cablevision's Velocity is Soooo Sloooow......
