Vantaggi

Company is in a stage of growth and revision in the telecommunications sector. Projects were clearly defined if not well designed, engineered, and properly budgeted. Decent benefits including accruing vacation and sick leave, health, dental, and others.

Svantaggi

Working as a project/ program manager is a misnomer. As an experienced project manager in waterfall/ agile/ and hybrid methodologies, with PMP certification, scope of job was more accurately described as Construction coordinator/ project auditor. Span of control was limited to handing off of externally contracted engineering projects to externally contracted construction companies, and auditing posted expenditures within scope of project. noteworthy to state that my time here was during a transition, with inexperienced and poor leadership that was focused primarily on cutting costs -which in many instances resulted in tension, high turnover, and strained and damaged relationships with adjacent utilities, third party contractors, and other members of the corporate team. Pay (salary) well below industry standard for a PMP. I was the only PMP in my group of peers. most were pulled from other areas of expertise throughout the company (internet service sales, internet service technicians).

Vantaggi

work life balance, excellent time off so long as manager doesn’t micromanage/track and limit FTO, nice people, leadership has turned the business around.

Svantaggi

No pay raises even with great performance review (5years with zero raise) No career growth/progression - been on a high-performing team for 5 years and not one person on the team has been progressed or promoted during that time. Little opportunity for career advancement and growth New jobs within the company are going to external hires, not much grwoth for current employees
