Pros

Total work flexibility. If you get your job done, are professional and provide value to the company they will bend over backwards to accomodate your personal needs. Great opportunity to work on the latest technology platforms.

Cons

Somewhat difficult to get promoted, although if you are patient and prove your value there are many opportunities for lateral moves. With proper mentorship and proven abilities there is upward movement as well. Patience and proven results are necessary.

Pros

Work/life balance, generous paid time off, flexibility to get to appointments as needed, a revamped short term incentive program. Lumen's leadership has really transformed the culture and put the company on a form foundation for growth.

Cons

They are still working on systems integration and combining the multiple companies that were merged into the current company. Leadership has made it a priority to invest the resources necessary to integrate the systems, workflow management. At this point the changes are starting to become evident.

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.
