"I worked for CenturyLink fka Qwest for 12 1/2 years. The company culture is of a family first orientation. The pay and benefits are very good. You are expected to be at work on time and be on call as required. Answering your phone at any time is required but this is typical telecom. There is a generous bonus plan as well. Working with your manager to balance work/life demands is encouraged.No longer working there due to recent economy related layoffs.Sigh...."

Network Engineer

"Good company to work for, upper-management however, is somewhat blind on what should be the base salary for employees living in a higher standard of living area. Also, for employees that been there for 5 or so years, seeing new contractors coming in with little to no experience in the field are being given a higher salary than you."
