Pros

GCI is an employee focused organization with lots of opportunity to move from entry level positions upwards or across departments. They have a very generous benefit package, fair market wages and many wfh home/flex options. They support furthering education, community involvement parents and have multiple women/lgbtq+/ Indigenous/diversity councils.

Cons

While there are plenty of resources a self motivated person can use to learn more about this ever-changing company/industry, you will most likely not get much training on "how to do your job". This company grew very big very fast and lacks consistent documentation on processes, has some bloat in leadership and hundreds of different applications being used in different departments. There are lots of internal politics and its not uncommon for employees to not know what another department does. As a result of all this, we often look like we have no idea what we are doing to our customers and to some extent its true. GCI doesn't always know what GCI is doing.

Pros

Very flexible, little oversight, great work balance

Cons

Senior Leadership lacks direction and cannot execute. Process and decision making is left up to individuals without agreement on strategic next steps or buy in from stakeholders. Teams are siloed and don’t work together. Blame is placed on lower level employees when objectives are not met.

Pros

The 10% 401k contribution is excellent, though the pay is lower. Veteran and DEI Programs. So many hardworking and talented individuals. Remote work options provide a very favorable work-life balance. The employee internet for those with GCI service is a fantastic benefit.

Cons

Repeated reorganizations are burning out the staff. Favoritism is very evident. Career progression halts at the management level unless you are among the favored or popular leaders. The recent reorganization has resulted in increased stress levels for employees, leading to poor decision-making and higher workloads.
