Cloudy with a chance of a Good Manager
Can anyone help me understand why the worst managers and directors are still at Crown. Human Resources and Business Support does not give a flying flip anymore. The more tenure a male has the more cr-p they can get away with.

Recalling Employees
Did anyone get anymore details on bringing back employees who were let go in the RIF?
Is stress leave a possibility?
Has anyone here ever taken stress leave? I’m curious about a few things. Firstly, is it unpaid, or can you get something if you see a doctor? Secondly, do you have to visit a doctor in person, or can you just call? I'm at my breaking point and I'd be... — read more
Anyone else swimming in a sea of incompetence?
Use a GC they say…for everything.. unfortunately the GCS can’t do what we do or have access that we do, Now we’re babysitting GC’s and overwhelming them to the point where they have no staff to fulfill our needs.. Most of the staff they do have is... — read more
“Prioritizing and personalizing your self-care”
The summer RIF was a major blow, leaving teammates struggling with stress and anxiety. Yet, their "prioritize your self-care" message feels more like a corporate shrug than a genuine concern. While self-care is important, it feels tone deaf for them... — read more
Update on layoffs
Do we know what's coming next and when?
I’m beginning to regret I wasn’t laid off
After adrenaline went down I turned around and realized that there was nothing to be happy about. Don’t get me wrong - it’s good to still have a job atm given the state of affairs and the outlook. I still wish I was thrown to the wolves and actually... — read more

And people are talking about selling our loss leading assets for $15
As expected, we are still disorganized
Following the last round of layoffs, I expected nothing less but a complete failure in organizing work in my team. For how long will this last? I either work for three people or twiddle my thumbs for hours on end. We can’t reach the usual levels of... — read more
Sale status
No one wants our failing fiber "business"
Goodbye to many on Aug 30th
Tomorrow Aug 30th is the last day for many. Some deserve to be gone and others do not. Either way, good luck in you new endeavors. There is a life after CC. A company that at one point was good.
Hybrid?
We set to go back into the office four days a week? Bull article about us being a great company on connect. Wonder how much they paid for that to be written.
The West Worst District
Hey Senior Leadership. You need to pull your heads out of your arses asap. Have you noticed that people are quitting weekly in the Phoenix Office? Maybe, just maybe you should ask why... That would take true leader to step up and wonder what could... — read more
I may sound naive
But it took the latest LR to make me realize how much I don’t like my job here anymore. Most people, I think, have a natural need to identify to an extent with their job/profession and by extension a company, and they expect some sense of... — read more

Sale Timelines
Does anyone who has gone through one of these fiber acquisitions have any insight as to the timing of the closing of the sale? IF a buyer is found and announced before the end of the year, does the closing take months longer to actually happen? ... — read more

The elephant in the room
Why hasn't CL gotten the boot over rapid yet?
Former colleague here
I was laid off last round. I found a new job quite fast after I was booted, and I like it much better. It pays better, but more importantly, is more enjoyable and I actually get to have a life. And no, I’m nothing special, my resume is not... — read more
Will closed offices open again?
Will the closed offices open again in a smaller location? For example in CA, they closed down a bunch of offices but they are apparently opening an office out in Rancho Cucamonga? Which is literally in the middle of nowhere. Are people in the West... — read more
The obvious truth
If the fiber side of Crown was a good and profitable business they would have been able to sell it by now.
Rank the Regions
Title What's the worst region
The industry and company is crumbling, and we’re shoveling dirt on its grave.
Instead of fortifying our foundations with innovation and process refinement, we're opting for a short-term, destructive approach: dismantling our workforce. It's a myopic strategy, treating human capital as an expendable commodity rather than the... — read more
Leave Crown if you can
I don't see a future here for anybody who wants to advance his or her career through hard work. Those who like to kiss the right behinds will continue to thrive here and those who are hard workers will be doing all the work for no reward. The only... — read more
What's going to happen?
I've overheard that the company will sell the fiber division soon. What will happen, and when? Will we lose our jobs? I'm tired of waiting for the hammer to drop.
Let’s talk
How’s everyone holding up in the West? Heard there’s been a lot of change to the teams.
What now
Now that the sale is off the table, what happens to the fiber business? We know small cell is wrapping up but something has to happen with the fiber customers.
Is anyone actually happy working?
Does anyone still have any motivation to get anything done?
What does everything think the future of Crown and it’s employees will be?
Since the first rif I’ve felt lost and uneasy. What does everything think the future will look like for the company at the end of this year? As of today, I was one of the “lucky” one’s kept on and as a reference, I work the small cells side in the... — read more

Enough with the victim blaming
Ok folks, behave. I’m sick of the victim blaming. Of those that are stuck here, most have a good reason: family situation, hard time finding a job because they are in a niche role, in a common job but the market has been repeatedly flooded due to the... — read more
