Fun place to work and highly closed to different ideas
Videographer/Producer (Former Employee), St. Louis, MO – June 13, 2013
Pros: free entry to special events and benefits package was ideal.
Cons: the red tape of creating new projects.
Going out on assignments to do shoots monday-wed. Then hoping to edit your own project or hand off to someone else. Working on different studio shoots, from sports to School programs. I learned how to communicate my ideas to others on shoots and editing. I learned to work with people who had clear Ideas about video production and how to help people – more... get an Idea about what they want to create. My co-workers were very helpful in projects and became my family. The hardest part of the job was getting new Ideas excepted by supervisors. The most enjoyable part was being ably to do all the cable television shows I created. – less

My typical day
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee), Walker, MI – June 5, 2013

Decent engineering job, but skills do not transfer
Network Specialist (Current Employee), San Luis Obispo, California – May 29, 2013
Pros: free cable if you're in a service area, stable company
Cons: limited advancement, skills are unique to industry
I work as a network engineer for Charter, and its a decent job if a low paying one. That being said, there isn't really a clear path to advancement within the company, and they do not value education or efforts to increase your own skill set. Cable is a very niche industry, and the experience you gain at Charter will probably not carry over to the rest – more... of the networking world. It's not a bad place to work, but its a little bit of a dead end and compensation is less than great. – less

Direct Sales Representative (Former Employee), Hickory, NC – May 8, 2013
Pros: excellent benefits
Cons: not willing to work with student schedules
Very wonderful place to work for, I would love to work for this company again. I had previously registered for college classes before getting the job so my school and work schedule conflicted which resulted in a lay-off until I was stable to work their required hours.

Loved Work, Management needs work.
Senior Cable Technician (Former Employee), Asheville NC – May 7, 2013
Pros: free cable, company car, ok pay
Cons: severe micro-management, poorly trained management
What company tells an employee of 5 years who started school because this corporation said they would prefer someone with a college degree. After getting my college degree from AB-Tech I was told that a Bachelors was preferred while I was getting my Bachelors they had several management positions open which I applied for and was rejected for other employees – more... with less tenure, worse numbers, and what broke the camels back was that each only possessed a H.S. Diploma. What kind of human resources is this who hires and promotes like that. – less
