Move on unless you're desperate! - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Lumen

Pretty much everything..... first off let me tell you I am NOT a disgruntled ex-employee! Layoffs about every 8 months, you never knew if today was your day. Morale was in the dumps. Everything was a huge secret, some on my team didnt have access to systems to do their jobs, pay scale was a HUGE secret, could not get a copy so we knew where we were. Although it didnt happen to me, management was REQUIRED to give someone on their team a "needs improvement" at review time regardless if deserved or not (this info was given directly to me from mgmt). At CTL you're just a number. Dont expect to have any clue about anything going on (you'll be lucky to have access to systems and enough info to do your job). They bought Level 3 and the leadership of L3 took over (seems odd that CTL takes on all their debt and then allows that leadership to take over - writing on the wall)! The 4000 layoffs in 18 months were all on the CTL side of the house. Unless you're "teachers pet" dont expect opportunities to move regardless of your contributions to the team or company. CTL is a sinking ship, look elsewhere unless you're desperate.
