Decent Pay, Low Morale
Decent Pay, Low Morale
Decent products with a large customer base and an iconic brand name.
Good salaries, bonus, 401k, and decent benefits.
The company used to be fun or good to work at, but not since COVID.
The company keeps laying off employees as they wanted to go from 140k to 90k.
They treat employees like livestock on a farm. For example:
- Work 5 days in a hub office.
- Minimum 8 hours a day.
- They check badge swipes.
- Monitor to see if you are on your computer at least 8 hours.
- If you are given a company phone, they geofence your mobile up to 1 mile from the office.
So, if you go to lunch outside this mile range, you will show up on a presence report.
Culture and morale are at an all-time low.
Also, when they lay off employees, they normally target employees who have worked close to 25 years or more so they don't have to pay out MR75 milestone benefits.
The CEO is running the company into the ground. Just look at the stock price over the past 5-10 years.
Telco is actually a dying field, and I would not recommend anyone to go into this sector, as there really is no growth.

Had an onsite interview and a phone interview. The onsite interview consisted of 4-5 individual interviews, each asking either technical or coding questions, but not as strict as typical whiteboard questions because I was interviewed directly by the

Phone Interview.... took months to even get things going. They seem to be a very disorganized company in terms of hiring. They don't really tell you where they are with the hiring process, just keep you guessing and ignore all forms of communication
