Pros

Many people whine about the processes and overhead required to get things done. In actuality, the processes work if you take 5 minutes to learn them and adapt them to your needs. Benefits and days off are very good. The official, global corporate language is American English, which is very convenient for North American employees.

Cons

Finding the proper contacts within the company can be daunting to impossible. The Broadband Access product vision is short-sighted and based on ego rather than market-winning solutions. As with many very large companies, the decision making process can get gummed up with too many committees and can too easily be blocked by those with a contrary agenda.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
