Working at Time Warner in Akron, OH: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Akron, OH Area

"Not so hot - Time Warner."

What do you like about working at Time Warner?

"Partially free cable. Now have to pay considerably more as an employee who needs to know the products being deployed for customers."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Do your homework on what interests you and your goals, just be yourself. Interview them and their accepted business practices. Be frank and deliberate. Take good notes and know what you're getting into. Negotiate hard for a better salary and benefits. Don't expect to get vacation for quite a while. Expect to see many colleagues let go on a regular basis due to reorganizations and performance deficiencies. They are not an honorable company in my opinion and will backstab you in a heartbeat."

What don't you like about working at Time Warner?

"Not a good company to work at if you like any organization or standards. Understaffed in critical areas resulting in overworking of some groups while others have plenty of manpower. They change standards all the time and do not provide enough training in front of a deployment of any application. Spend a lot of time working in multiple applications duplicating efforts, which slows performance and efficiency. NOT a reliable and long term opportunity as a career unless you are a warmonger and do not hesitate stepping on people to look good. I wasted 3.5 years there with lots of promises of it getting better but never did until the day I left."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Reduce clutter of multiple applications. Stop sales from making promises that cannot be delivered without a miracle. Set realistic financial goals that do not result in personnel getting let go or disciplined, tarnishing their reputations. Make employees happy to come to work, not dread it."
