A day at Cox Communications
CB Outside Plant Engineer (Former Employee), Phoenix, AZ –
Pros: compensation, benefits, feeling of accomplishment
Cons: the corporate environment
Working as an engineer gives me a good feeling of accomplishment. Building something from a simple idea and following it through to a completion of a project is exhilerating. The most rewarding part of this job is: as problems arise from day to day, finding quick solutions and implementing them at a moment's notice makes one feel as if they are really – more...  accomplishing something. In this field, the compensation and communication with managers on company goals are excellent. – less

A fun place to work and good benefits .
Telecommunications (Former Employee), Rancho Santa Margarita, CA –
4 ten hour days some days would be a little longer than others. Normally help was pretty much available if needed. the managers were all great people always looking to help you succeed. the weather could play a tough role in your job. my favorite part of the job was to help others.

Depending on the position, a truly nice place to work.
Technician (Former Employee), Baton Rouge, La –
Pros: free cable, free internet, good salary, company discounts, various employee programs
Cons: poor management, long hours, working in extreme weather conditions
I had a company vehicle and gas card with a toughbook. I used it to clock in and see my appointments for the day. I learned to be patient with people and although what I was doing was the same, every situation was different. Management was not well. My co-workers had the same frustration of being over worked. The hardest part of the job was not having – more...  everything you needed to do the job effectively. The most enjoyable part of the job was the satisfaction of helping people who really needed it and being part of a company that gives back to the community. – less

They value their employees and mad eit a good place to work
Phone Center- Installer-Team Leader (Former Employee), Phoenix, AZ –
Pros: paid well, decent benefits, family culture
Cons: call center work just not up my alley
I enjoyed the field work and being a Team Leader, but once I was sent into the call center it was not a good job fit for me. I have worked physical labor all my life and answering the phones was not at all where I wanted to be. I enjoy customer service, teaching new techs the job, solving issues, and resolving issues for frustrated customers.

Customer Service/ Billing Specialist (Current Employee), Las Vegas, NV –
Pros: benifts galore!
Cons: irrational customers
+100 calls a day customer service work with great benefits.
Learned a great deal about myself and customer communication.
My boss was wonderful but had a lot of responsibilities on his plate.
Co-workers were AMAZING, they will contiune to be life long friends.
Hardest part was not taking customer comments personally.
The best part was the people I worked – more...  with and the discount on my personal cable bill didn't hurt either. – less

Excellent co-workers
Customer Service Rep (Former Employee), Sierra Vista, AZ –
Pros: monthly bonuses for highest sales.
Cons: called in to work with little to no advance notice
Reviewed customer accounts on daily basis, updated each account per customer request. Scheduled installations individually as well as re-scheduling. Most co-workers were very helpful in offering advice. The most difficult part was arguing with certain customers who insisted their accounts were current when they had not made payments in several months. – more...  The most enjoyable part was correcting reception problems that were in most cases easily corrected. – less

NO JOB SECURITY
Solution Specialist (Former Employee), Santa Barbara, CA –
Pros: pay, discounts
Cons: no job security, rude customers
Good place to work and gain sales experience. The main problem is that there is no job security. There are constant changes. One day your woking and another day your scared that its going to be your last day. Most of the customers are very rude. Management is constantly hovering over you making sure that the job is being done correctly but the worst – more...  part is that if you do make a mistake, management criticizes you in front of the customers. The pay is good if you meet your monthly quota. The discounts are really good too. – less
