Pros

The wonderful customers and paid holidays

Cons

I just watched this company eliminated 3 layers of management within the small cell division without a blink of an eye. This action seemed cold, very calculated and self-fulfilling so tower management can replace these talented industry leaders with weak, insecure tower employees who don't understand the small cell business. I have observed Crown Castle target employees, hunt them down and fabricate reasons for wrongful termination hoping these victims don't have the means or the energy to challenge this huge corporation with deep pockets. It seems wrong on so many levels. Crown's leadership has become greedy and focused only on the bottom line. If you want to work at Crown Castle just remember all employees are expendable without a moment's notice. Fear, intimidation and job loss seem to be Crown's new B3 values.

Pros

Great place to work. Although there has been a lot of change over the past few years, I feel the company is back on track. Culture has been dramatically improved.

Cons

Not much at this time. Still lots of change ahead though as the company transforms into a tower focused company.

Pros

Depending on who is running your team (I’ve had 3 different team leads in the 3 years that I’ve been a full time employee,) some have provided great mentoring, and have taught me a lot.

Cons

Job security is extremely unstable, and employees often feel like they are one decision away from becoming part of another layoff statistic. In my experience, women were not always treated equitably compared to their male counterparts, depending heavily on the leadership structure within the department. The company also showed limited willingness to accommodate health conditions, often searching for loopholes to minimize support, assistance, or benefits during times when employees and their families needed them most. Leadership roles often felt transactional and tied directly to the company’s immediate operational goals. For example, when a department needed growth, leadership would bring in individuals with strong industry relationships, connections, and expertise to help expand profitability and establish the department. However, once those goals were achieved and the leader’s network or strategic value had been fully utilized, the company would frequently move on from them—either through reassignment or termination—in favor of the next person who fit the company’s evolving objectives. Overall, the culture created an environment where many employees felt expendable rather than valued long-term.
