Elliot has been quiet since their investigation on the fiber business. I know that massive layoffs are coming up soon but please make it asap, I don’t want to sit there listening to my lame director saying “let’s put effort into making this company a... — read more 

Tower teammates. I know of 5 they’ve already asked to come back with prorated severance paybacks. We are all trying to get out of the sinking ship. Who in their right minds would want to come back. You got the severance! Consider yourselves the lucky... — read more

Spend millions and millions in severance, unemployment benefits and relocation costs, have double staffing during the transition period and rent 2 new buildings in Houston - just to close 2 buildings in Washington County, PA that will be difficult to... — read more 

I'm not exaggerating. Every single person I talked to about this said they were looking. Not everybody is doing it with the same urgency, but all are applying. I don't think the leadership realizes this. I don't think they are aware of what kind of... — read more

Happy holidays with however you spend these days. I hope this next year is a positive one for you.

Word has it we aren’t replacing closed offices anymore? Is that true? Immediate cost savings. We will continue to forgo renewing any building lease that come up and have the vast majority of employees work remote. It’s up to the employee to come... — read more 

Merry Christmas I think we all agree that enterprise fiber is gone

Will Crown shutdown the money pit, it’s a place where Google’s failed employees work for Crown now and burn through money. Another terrible network decision and zero accountability for their actions and spending. It’s network hangout that originally... — read more 

Making bets, I put my money on only TA

The latest in updates per Crown's press release. Purple is going away and the B3s are being reinstated.

Who else position eliminated - notified today?

I have an unexpected one-on-one meeting with my manager tomorrow. I haven't heard of any layoffs before the end of the year, but I can't stop panicking. Did anybody else receive a similar invite out of the blue? How worried should I be about this? I... — read more 

Brace yourselves everyone. A major RIF is coming along with portions of the company being sold. If history prevails, this is how Elliot moves: CEO removal, evaluation of the business, major layoffs, sell apart of the business and then eventually... — read more 

Elliott needs to look at who's running the ship. There are people in place that have no idea how to run a Fiber company. Some work at Crown that run Google Fiber into the ground. Some are bullies to make up for their lack of leadership and technical... — read more

I got to digging today and found the Relocation Policy that was linked to the October Relocation request and saw that CC was working with a third party company to assist with helping employees relocate. It then went in to say about how any expenses... — read more 

I know of people who think their group or themselves are safe from layoffs because of their experience and knowledge and good relationship with their manager and so on. If they had been paying attention, they'd know how wrong they are. People who I... — read more 

The other options aren’t nearly as attractive, looking at the gap to our goals. The office move was one of the possible levers. With that off the table for now, at least…

Wireless Estimator had a story on Crown yesterday. https://wirelessestimator.com/articles/2023/crown-castles-surprising-about-face-on-canonsburg-relocation-sparks-employee-confusion/ They are the only ones that aren't afraid to upset the apple cart. — read more 

We’re bleeding cash but we’re still hiring and promoting. We have almost 200 requisitions open and anointed at least 4 people into middle management positions. You would think the BID and EMT would impose a hiring freeze to show Elliott that... — read more 

Have you seen the Jay and Tony video on Crown web page? Jay was not his normal "together" self. Shaky and stuttering. I almost felt sorry for him.

Offices will still close and people will still lose their jobs if they do not relocate. It’s been placed on hold for 6-9 months until JB is long gone.

Retention bonuses should be absolutely offered as a way to try and make amends for jerking people and their lives around for the last several months due to complete and utter incompetence of the EMT. I have zero trust or faith in leadership at this... — read more 

Thank you all for joining…. We have decided to actually proceed with moving to Houston. We just needed to feel the room out to see if our thoughts were right .. I can not believe how DS reacted to so many questions as CL just sat there and sipped on... — read more 

Crown is becoming messier and messier by the day. I don't think there's a good future here for anybody.

You want us to be gung ho about Crowm? Maybe Crown needs to start making sacrifices for us. We have been through the ringer…..show us you care! Do something out of the ordinary like telling us we can work from home because you know the entire... — read more

Dan just said when asked if fiber is for sale that "everything is for sale"

Nothing makes me think of wasted energy than the whole PURPLE thing. It will now forever be associated with this dark period for Crown. AS AN OWNER, it seems to me that getting rid of that silliness and back to the beautiful simplicity of the B3's... — read more

As we all read through the email, many of let out a loud WOOHOO, but what’s next for Crown.

We are not google. We are not SpaceX. We do not build products. Why do we have to pay exorbitant rent for any office spaces at all? The company functioned fine during lockdowns. What is the point of wasting money on offices? They could save many... — read more 

Who do you think would be a good replacement for Jay? Is there anybody who could get us out of the mess we're in right now thanks to him?

With Jay’s long overdue departure, sell that monstrosity of a building and move the office to cheaper real estate. No longer do we need to be located in his backyard.

It’s going to be a strange week, that’s for sure! How does all this news keep topping itself?

Any scoop on the reason field trips to visit Houston were canceled with 1 day notice? They were meant to help decide if relocation was a good fit for you.
