American Tower reviews about "people"

They pretend to care etc, but it’s mostly just lip service. You really can’t get anywhere unless you know someone or your department is favored.

Below‑market compensation and less‑than‑desirable annual raises and bonuses. Increases at the time of promotions were often limited due to a lack of employee leverage. Long‑term employees were not brought up to market rates, while new hires frequently came in earning more than those with tenure and proven performance. Subpar HR team — they are focused solely on protecting the company rather than supporting employees. Unfair practices regarding hybrid and remote schedules. Many employees are allowed to work remotely while the company preaches to the rest that remote work is not an option. Even individuals on the same team or within the same department are given different arrangements. Senior staff are often granted privileges that their direct reports are denied. They heavily preach cost‑cutting, yet allow certain teams to be wasteful and fund perks or community engagement events that fall short of their goals and misuse resources.

Work is no longer fully remote.

I believe that the base pay could be higher for some roles.

Fore warning to candidates interviewing here...this is a job, A job at a company where you are a number...not a career...you serve one purpose and that is to work as hard as possible for as long as possible for your manager. Toxic Culture focused on squeezing employees for as much as they can. Micromanagement. Micromanagement. Micromanagement. Management team is entrenched in "Cliques" of friends who have worked with each other "forever." Political games to undercut people/gain power is the name of the game here. It is expected that employees work nights and weekends to keep up with the overloaded amount of assigned work. Flexibility in my group is non-existent. The amount of time leaders have raised their voices and yelled at employees in meetings is alarming. This type of treatment is rewarded by senior management and viewed as "Driving the Business" Stretch assignments! AKA additional work that you have to squeeze in for no reward or recognition. Any where you hear the term "Work Boyfriend or Work Wife" is an absolute red flag. Everything is policed. Parking. Wifi usage. Badge tracking. Kitchen use. time in and out of the office. active time at computer. lunch. summer hours. I once had a manager who said "The reason Senior Management has offices around the windows is so we can see who is walking rather than working"

there are times when i feel like there is lack of career growth even when you've received exceptional praise every year.

Lacked the resources needed to make this job manageable. No support from corporate for new resources. Very high cash volume with quick turnarounds expected. Stress was not worth the pay.

there is a lot of change happening

Pay is pretty sub-par for the work expectations. Workload can be unfairly distributed based on your assigned market and associated market nuances. Very limited growth potential and few opportunities to climb the ladder professionally.
