Great place to work
Customer Service Rep (Former Employee), Ridgecrest, CA – June 6, 2013
Pros: co-workers
Cons: days that were unbelievably slow
Process payments from customers, open new cable accounts, inventory equipment, cash handling, troubleshooting, dispatching for techs, creating advertisements for channel 3 using MS Power Point.
This job definitely taught me to refine my communication skills and especially my customer service skills. Co-workers were awesome, we had a really great work – more... environment. – less

low pay, lousy long hard hours
Auditor/Sales (Former Employee), Moline, IL – June 4, 2013
Pros: low pay. overtime
Cons: low pay, overtime
don't bother working here. They have a constant revolving door of employees. If you haven't been there for 20 years, you are a nobody and treated as such.

Good place to build a foundation in media planning/buying
Assistant Media Planner, Digital (Former Employee), New York, NY – June 4, 2013
Pros: great team environment, centrally located office space (although rush hour and all the tourists gets sickening), respect of work/life balance, mediacom really does try and do what's best for their employees and clients
Cons: awful rapport between managment/higher ups and junior positions, something is always changing so there is no consistency in terms of best-practice, a lot of turnover
Overall, my experience at MediaCom was great. I came into the job without any prior knowledge of media planning or advertising. Mostly due to my awesome team, I was able to learn quickly and always felt there was a support system.

Not for the faint of heart
Manager (Current Employee), Anywhere in the United States – April 30, 2013
Pros: management and supervisor being off site
Cons: micromanaging
I am a long term employee who has received "above average" reviews for years, yet I am not considered for promotional opportunities. Why? Because I am not willing to uproot my family and move across the country to another location, or when positions in my field are posted, they are posted at the same level I am currently at. This company is privately – more... owned and operated and there are no procedures (outside of hourly) for supervisor or management promotions. If you work at the Corporate office, you are pretty much guaranteed that you will be promoted, especially if you are in good with the owner or his family.
The company micro-manages everything you do. You hear "we trust you to make decisions" but every decision is made at the Corporate level or if you do make a decision on your own and it is deemed to be wrong, you are belittled in public and told that you were wrong. If you expect a career here, look elsewhere. – less

Great Co-workers
Commercial Sales and Retention (Former Employee), Chillicothe, IL – April 26, 2013
Pros: when we are very busy, there is a lot of stress our supervisor and manager find a way to turn it around, playing games, getting the department lunch, that we all eat together, no talking work allowed just, sitting and connecting.
Cons: healthcare did not seem very good when i used it, bad weeks also were no fun, it affected your pay.
I do inbound commercial sales for small to medium businesses for a cable company. We have to meet individual and team goals. My co-workers have been great when I ask questions. I have learned so much. It's exciting helping businesses put together a package that helps them increase sales and to build on the services as they grow.
My supervisor and manager – more... are both great, very quick to help solve a problem. The hardest part of the job is when a business calls in to say they can't make it, and need help with downsizing or that they are closing. For me the most enjoyable part of the job is when my customers email that they need to increase services or are opening up another site. They also send me friends that have businesses and need services. That is the best part and I feel i have done a good job. – less

Pros: discount cable and internet service

This job was a very difficult job as middle management got little to no support from upper management. However, daily I did try to make the best of it and always had a smile on my face.

Not Much to Offer
Customer Retention Specialist (Former Employee), Chillicothe, IL – February 7, 2013
Pros: good pay
Cons: crazy people
The whole day was filled with getting yelled at by customers who expected something for nothing. Then our commissions were cut and it was not worth going to work anymore.

Collections without being rude
Collections/Customer Service (Former Employee), West Des Moines, IA – January 29, 2013
I liked how Mediacom collections was flexible with people and were not very threatening. I worked on a team and we had several different managers and leads. The hardest part of the job was telling people I couldn't help them.
