Parting gift

All tenure paperweights we were “graciously” rewarded should be left in front of 2000 like a cemetery or mailed to Houston as a reminder of those they left behind.

Lawsuit anyone??

Can we collectively sue CC? I mean seriously, what the heck are we doing letting them f us over like this. Not sure of the legality, but this is total BS.

Houston Office

So what’s so great about the Houston office? Is there a gym? A daycare? Free lunches every day? If they want to compare their benefits/perks to Apple and Google, shouldn’t our HQ be as bougie? I’ve been to a smaller company’s HQ where they had at... — read more 

JB smiling on call

Love that our CEO is smiling at the start of a call where most of us our losing our jobs.

Abusive CLOWN CASTLE relationship

This is hilarious, like an abused spouse, they take away your colleagues, lie to you, take away your “house” then we are supposed to trust them to move to Houston?! What on God’s green earth do you think will happen if you do this. Don’t be a fool... — read more

I think we can all agree...

Management has demonstrated over the years that they do not know how to run this company. Poor, short-sighted acquisitions that they had no business buying, because they do not know how to run and scale the tower business, much less sc or fiber... — read more

Will VergeX or Versa or... be sold?

Crown just obtained Versa last year, but it is a disaster. Calls every day from customers that use it complaining they have no idea what it does and are given no documentation when asked on the capabilities. They comment they connect and are fast... — read more

A note for anyone affected this time:

As soon as you are told or you pass on relocating, you’ll be locked out of your computers and treated like a criminal by the company. No one will respond to your questions and you’ll be put in the cold.

Confirmed Layoffs are coming!

The company is trying to make it appear like it is not layoffs, but rather a wash. It was just reported to the investors that 1,000 people will be moved to Houston. I was just asked if I would move to Houston. I said no and was told I would be laid... — read more

Disappearing threads

Looks like the post about Crown being sold disappeared. The EMT get sensitive about somebody dropping the dime in their scheme?

3 more days till all he-l breaks loose. Earnings in the morning followed by bad news in the afternoon by the EMT. Brace yourself for these lying MFs

10k SC goal for 2023?

November Layoffs

Any information on this yet? Will it be similar to the last layoff as far as compensation goes? Are they taking volunteers again?

It seems like everyone is applying elsewhere

It seems many teammates are actively applying for roles outside of CCI, even if they think their roles would be safe through another wave of layoffs. My guess is that individual contributors without lots of RSUs at stake will jump at opportunities... — read more 

Where's Jay Brown?

The sign of a weak, cowardly, ineffective leader is one who hides from his underlings in the face of bad news. This is exactly what Jay Brown has been doing since the first round of layoffs in August. Say what you want about the rest of the EMT... — read more

Stock at ~$89

Well it seems 2-3 days a week we set a record for another 52 week low. Seems that November layoff is not only certain, but I'm sure there is an inverse correlation with stock price and number of us let go. Unless something changes it's probably... — read more
