"EarthLink is an excellent company to work for. Lots of PTO and great benefits. The company has much room to improve its processes. Once it achieves that, it should become a highly profitable one creating even greater opportunities. One key factor holding the company back is lack of innovative managers with real world experience. The company needs to stop following technology and create their own idea processes and then fit technology to complete the process design."

Working at EarthLink in Atlanta, GA: 12 Employee Reviews

Account Executive

"I have taken great pride in the quality of the products I sell and the value it brings to customers. When a salesperson is delivering quality and value to customers, customers are successful in overcoming challenges they have that mostly impact revenue on some level. This builds trust which can be leveraged in future sales and new technology discussions as well as key introductions to other companies for additional opportunities. EarthLink does not share this view."

Sales Engineer

"EarthLink is trying to move from a networking/MPLS company to an IT services company. This is a long, difficult transition which requires more time than the Board of Directors has given the CEO. However, they have hired a new CEO from EMC storage which may help."

"Could not find a more experienced team to work with and gain experience. Company is focused on performance, so any training or additional experience will need to come in evenings and weekend work, but the resources are available for training.Would work for this company, given the opportunity, it is large and growing, especially in the data center and server virtualization areas."
