      Can be good company to work for - Anonymous employee Lumen Employee Review

      Pros

      Compensation seems fair for the most part. The benefits are competitive and there are really nice programs and incentives to help manage your overall health Most of the managers I've worked with have been very good. Company is quick to implement changes where needed needed.

      Cons

      There have been a number of employee reductions and the expectation is doing more with less people, in some cases unreasonably so. Limited opportunity for advancement in the company to higher levels. Not as much focus on automation as needed, instead rely too heavily on manual work. Significant changes in direction occur frequently and you need to be willing/able to adapt.

      Pros

      Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

      Cons

      Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
