Well, the time has come. It’s the last night of the Crown Castle nightmare that has been the lives of those of us in the perimeter. I’ve lived through Covid, several RIFs, the lineup of C-suiters that have exited (one took her broom with her), the... — read more 

Change announced as of 4/27/2026 @ 1:00pm EST Our departmental groups have been chatting about this potential since the beginning but the info finally dropped. That group is just but one of the many departments being squeezed to absolute death with... — read more 

Any bets?

As a long-time employee watching our recent executive communications, I am genuinely terrified for the future of this company. We are being fed a steady diet of corporate buzzwords that sound impressive but mean absolutely nothing to the people doing... — read more 

There is a significant concern across the teams regarding the lack of bottom-up input in this new structure. From the conversations I’m having, there is near-zero buy-in because the workload and structure don't seem to reflect our operational... — read more 

Nobody's acknowledged the people we lost, and the workload is crushing. The manager isn't even trying. It's not just the volume, there are critical gaps. Even if we wanted to pick up the slack, there are some things we simply can't do.

Looks like SBA is beating Crown to the punch by exploring a sale.

Have they published an org chart for Arium and Zayo? Is tower team allowed to see it?

One of the funniest things I’ve ever witnessed in corporate America happened last week. Our tone deaf executives stood in front of a room and shared a half a**ed set of things we should care about. Then instead of making their “I will” statements... — read more 

Serious question: is this an actual leadership change… or just another episode of “nothing to see here, carry on”? Because if you’ve been here longer than five minutes, you’ve seen this headline before. Big announcement. Big promises. Same results. ... — read more 

Are they really expecting each PC to handle ALL the financials for every customer going forward starting next month? I’m drowning with one as it is. A job isn’t worth this much stress.

The culture has shifted dramatically in the last two years. Managers with zero experience are making decisions that make no sense. You're not allowed to question anything or suggest better ways. The culture has turned from bad to worse. Every day I'm... — read more 

Could someone share what’s on the agenda or what main topics we’ll be covered during Wednesday’s mandatory all‑hands call? I’d like to know what to expect so I can be prepared ahead of time.

No LTI replacement yet? Really? Employee first? Employee focus? When was the last update? So are they laying off at close with these delayed announcements? Fun morale booster.

May 1st will be a new beginning and fresh start for fiber. Arium & Zayos paths are uncertain but they have a future good or bad. Crown however, is damaged and the trust has been broken every Crown employee will be looking over his or her shoulders... — read more 

Crown Castle was something once beautiful and admired, now placed on a shelf with a price tag that no one bothers to read. The brightest jewels that once gave it life and purpose have long since been taken away and discarded, leaving only a dull... — read more 

Any active rumors of a reorg or layoffs? I know they said no more layoffs but I don’t trust them? Only people with real knowledge please reply

Can someone please explain why it takes half a year to fill a job here? I don't understand the delay.

Directors that say yes to every request from VPs no matter how ridiculous or last minute the ask continue to survive. They have their head so far up the VPs a$$ hoping to advance their own career with no regard to their team. Truly a good ole boys... — read more 

Does anyone actually have good feeling about this takeover this whole operational readiness is turning out to be a operational disaster month

So apparently, throwing darts are the new operating model. Town hall highlight of the year: Head of IT + CFO confidently announce that “No other companies have figured out AI governance… but we will.” The silence afterward? You could hear a budget... — read more 

We have to deal with extremely poor management, and you have to belong to their circle, or they turn your life into a living he-l! Don't get me started on so many gossips going on behind the close door. You're expected to know everything and do... — read more 

When will we find out if the Board approved the Purple Stock award for 2025?!?

We need some help in the field we have been cut down to a skeleton crew and my manager is non-existent.

Us together is better. We must return to the office to increase collaboration. Whoever created the new seating assignments didn't make any effort to keep teams together. Collaboration with anyone BUT your own team. What a joke and an embarrassment... — read more 

According to the severance agreement I was supposed to get my final paycheck today but it has yet to hit my bank. Is anyone else missing their final paycheck to?

I wonder how it may have turned out for Crown if Mr Paul Elliott Singer had not reared his head.

As I read these posts, I feel deep concern for both current and former teammates. I want to gently remind everyone that if you’re facing something difficult or need support, you can reach out to the Ethics Alert Line. It’s managed by an independent... — read more 

It's so lame both leaders are not even making eye contact. RA doesn't want to talk about his demotion. Hopefully, they are finding a replacement to consolidate all compliance departments.

Just had a talk with my adviser about this whole voluntary layoff thing….With me I am so close to 65, I plan to get out of telecomm and pick up a mediocre part time job to cushion the loss of CC funds. Come to find out the upcoming deposit of my... — read more 

Just trust what this leadership team tells you. Look past the quarter-zip smiles and forced enthusiasm and you will see a mountain of corporate spin. CP called out “incredible collaboration” this week...People at desks were not collaborating they... — read more 

What happened to Crown continuing coverage throughout the severance period? I just filled out the continuation form and Crown is paying $38 and I am paying $2000 per month. This is my 3rd lay off in 25 years in the industry, its never been done with... — read more 

Does anyone think this new CEO is a clown?

It seems that people are disappearing from teams without any company wide communication. Look on social media and you'll find evidence. This is worse than major rounds, in my opinion. At least with a major round, you know when it's done. This can go... — read more 

I am really surprised no one is talking about loosing their unused PTO. I cant believe CC get away with this. PTO is something that is accrued (earned). How can they get away with not paying that out at the time of termination? Unless of course the... — read more 

Since they announced the layoff at 3pm on Weds, and laid everyone off by 2pm Thursday, wouldn’t that violate the WARN Act? Don’t they have to give a 60 day notice?

Like the saying goes it is better to be optimistic and wrong than pessimistic and right. This is my hope. After the storm passes and we sell Fiber and Small Cell we have the money to hire many of these talented, loyal, and hard workers back. It... — read more 

It doesn't feel like a win at all.

Anybody know how to get offered the severance package if you were moved to another team? I got moved to a new department without any say in it, and I'd rather have the severance instead.

I was layed off AFTER thw all clear email went out. Way to break my heart..
