Someone had to say it. Get off this site and enjoy your free time with friends and family. Cheers!

5 applications sent. Damn, I feel accomplished.

I can’t take this anymore. This place is toxic, and nothing gets done. I’m out soon, no way I’m sticking around in this nightmare. I feel for the people stuck here, constantly living in fear of layoffs. It’s miserable. No paycheck is worth this kind... — read more 

I know we are all anxious about what is going to happen. But we can not influence the outcome. Just keep the mental distance, do the bare minimum at work and at least investigate the job market.

With the Houston building in the process of being leased out, the rumors of transitioning the EMT to Canonsburg are becoming true. Houston folks you will be asked to relocate to the great state of PA.

We aren’t. That is old news from 2020.

“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” Quote by James Clear that 100% sums up life at Crown for the last 10 years. Arrogance wouldn’t allow us to find a system and stick with it. Constant change with a... — read more 

Make the f-n decision already and announce what’s going to happen. The longer this drags out the worse it looks on leadership.

Why is compensation for high performers at the bottom of the industry? Is this normal, or am I the only one being seriously underpaid?

Ever notice how 98% of the posts on here are during work hours..be more constructive with your time. Just like I should be instead of making this post.

Interesting filing yesterday on changes in the company by laws related to voting shares. Something’s coming.

Why is this allowed? Not only allowed, but sometimes it feels like management through bullying is encouraged. Somebody here seems to think that if your direct reports are not afraid of you, you're doing something wrong. It's the worst possible... — read more 

I heard a new rumor that Zayo will get everything but Florida and Texas. Disneyland and all other venues in Florida generate more than 17 million a month. Texas just because of the EMT. Sounds plausible, but once again who knows. I’ve heard... — read more 

Way too many layers, way too many people who think they know everything but are utterly useless. What we have are big teams bogged down by pointless meetings, endless back-and-forth, and people jockeying for power instead of actually getting things... — read more 

So a competitor company and Crown Castle decided to have a canoe river race. Both teams practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race. On the big day, the competitor company won by a mile. Crown Castle, very discouraged and... — read more 

Election is finally over, can we actually announce wtf is happening with Fiber and Small Cell now?

Chatter has been louder these days. With fiber issue still hanging in the air (and fiber performing poorly), I wouldn’t be surprised if there is reorg and more layoffs coming. Have you heard anything about it or know more? I was hoping for some... — read more 

Shouldn't we have already received info for 2025 by now?

Is there one? We're drowning in work and despite our manager saying that we'd be getting at least two new additions to help out for months, nothing has happened. I can't figure out what's going on, but I do know that we won't be able to last like... — read more 

Hearing rumors from zayo people. Not sure how real but seems within their org they are believing something is finalized

With all the negativity floating around, I can’t help but wonder if anyone at Crown is still enjoying their job. I understand that layoffs are a constant worry these days, that's simply how it is at most companies. But what about job satisfaction? Is... — read more 

Severance check for the holidays will make it better.

If CL allowed Fibernet to lead network rather than lightower it would have been more successful.

There's some fiber ops tech from NY always complaining that no one else has technical skills. Wonder why apple or Facebook haven't picked him up yet

Did you find a union yet? Tell us more about your light levels.

I feel like with all the fiber talk, there isn't anyone else left who even remembers the old crown.

I've been here for five years, and I feel it's been a complete waste of my time. Every year, the pay basically stays flat, and the benefits keep shrinking. If that's not bad enough, they seem to be focused on pushing out the older employees - the... — read more 

Word is you all are safe from imminent layoffs...buyers are only interested in the employees, not the assets. Keep the purple values strong!

What is our Sale Team doing, is there anyone left that can bid a project?

So does TPG have a new board the fiber people can go to? We know we've worn out our welcome here and just want to move on to the next company who will try to sell us yet again. I don't know why nobody wants us :(

Announcement will be tomorrow, they are assuming all fiber and SCN debts, will build all planned fiber routes, nodes, and agreed to take all the terrible Tower management.

We just got the briefing docs for the team meetings. Layoffs still on the table, lists already submitted.

Told you nothing was being announced! This is it, this is your job. Embrace or not, here you are!

Fiber is strong and staying. Tower people......you are free to cry here. Fiber will always be the way to go. Just don't let tower people run it in the ground.

Kathy will sink this ship!!!!!

Lol

Should I hold or Sale?
