Zayo Reviews

Pros

Great team of people in Europe. Collaborative work environment in amazing office. Strong sense of team working and open access to the local leadership team. A positive outlook ahead for Zayo.

Cons

Not for the faint hearted. It's a hard working environment and isn't for everyone. To be successful you need to be a self starter and open to finding the information you need.

Pros

No micromanaging, decent salary, nice office. Good place to learn where you don't want to be.

Cons

Processes, systems, training, strategy, work life balance.

Pros

Intelligent and hard working people is the most important asset, not the fibre network, Zayo definitely has it.

Cons

Intelligent and hard working people but they have to follow silly process/policies in Zayo and no one really talks about it with real opinion. People who design the process either: 1) don't really down to the earth and have to do these process by themselves; 2) don't use the logic and take everything for granted. 3) don't want to face the fact the process/policy was wrong. For example, quarter end is with lots of pressure for sales to close order. However if sales delays order to the following month, he/she get paid earlier and better for cashing out. Just one example of self-contradictory and there are many of this. A policy should be published because it's reasonable and good, not because some management have a few cocktails and then come out ‘’brilliant'' ideals.

Pros

Strong network and the people are great

Cons

Very limited resource and lack of process meaning it can be challenging to

Pros

Good learning experience, good IT, good network, good products, reasonable benefits, ok pay, people on the whole pleasant and free fruit once a month.

Cons

Chaotic, no one knows what they're doing, last second bossy culture, if you're not in sales you're nobody. Not enough staff, zero training and cumbersome database.

Pros

A company well run by very committed individuals; the company has fully grasped and embraced the idea that data is king in the twenty-first century; most people who work for Zayo are bright, ambitious, approachable and generally likeable

Cons

The company treats investors, customers and employees very much in that order; you will be expected to make sacrifices (knowing that even if you give your all you could be made redundant at any time if you're damaging the EBITDA number); rewards are allocated only where necessary (i.e not everyone shares in the long-term incentive plans, no regular pay reviews); in short it can be brutal!
