CenturyLink Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"I've worked with CenturyLink since October of 2015. It is a great company to work for if you're looking for a lead player in the Network and Telecom industry."

"I worked for CenturyLink for about 20 years. Since it is in the business of technology, I always enjoyed solving complex technical challenges. However, with the transformation and move to colocate things are changing."

"average but less growth and skills required compared to my background"

"I liked the Work. I enjoyed the people that I worked with.The VP level personal were friendly."

"horrible company to work for, pretty much dwindled the service tech field to nothing in my area without adjusting load. horrible plant conditions that have been neglected for well over a decade, not customer friendly whatsoever. Very out of date with technology. Systems are always crashing, and new programs and applications designed to help with job are by no means helpful."

"Benefits are good. Pay is average. Difficult to get promoted. Many managers are afraid to challenge certain de facto, archaic rules. Employees and peers are very dedicated. Many are a joy to worry with. Raises are small and sometimes non-existent. Overtime without pay is the norm for salaried employees. Lots of people remain for their entire career."

"Overall good company, except for the cancer, IN MY OPINION, which is many of the clique-ish K.C. folks. Lots of backstabbing, office politics, and general dishonesty I have come to expect from such a white-livered crowd of self-entitled urbanites. Maybe that's a Kansas thing and, I don't know, and perhaps typical of much of corporate America. However, I'm young, just out of college, and have a lot to learn. I just came in expecting friendly coworkers and lots of them seem so two-faced. Is it that way, everywhere? However, overall, the company is sound and pretty well-run, thanks to competent, honest, leadership in Monroe. Pay is fair, benefits are decent, and for telecom, I hear one could do a lot worse. I guess you got to take the good with the bad with any company. However, I wish management would address and rein in some of the negative atmosphere up in K.C."

"The staff makes everyone feel welcome and they like to engage in fun activities to boost employee morale. Overall great company to work for and a lot of opportunity for advancement."

"Great place to work and the people are really nice."

"Great environment, but the common theme seems to be change."
