Windstream Communications Employee Reviews for Network Operations Center Technician

What do you like about working at Windstream Communications?

"The Operations Manager is prejudice and the Network Operations department only has 2 or 3 actual educated technicians. Everyone else was hired because of race and association. Windstream does not respect diversity in any sense of the word. If you are not from Mountain Home, AR or Greensboro, AR you won't get a job in Network Ops. He only wants to hire people that he can control or that he knows personally from his earlier days as a technician."

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

"First and foremost you will not get hired unless you are a White American and you must keep your head down and do your work and dont ask too many questions about training"

What don't you like about working at Windstream Communications?

"The technology was good but no one would train me because I was an African American. Everything I learned there I had to grab a book and just start reading."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Get rid of the Operations Manager because he uses Good Ole Boy tactics to get things he want done in Little Rock, AR and the surrounding areas."
