Toronto, ON (Canada)

Current Employee – been working at Rogers Communications full-time for more than 7 years

ProsAbility to move around - people have gone from call centre agents to VP's

ConsCost cutting and layoffs have caused the rest of the resources to be overworked with no work life balance.

They expect you to work extra hours and don't recognize you

Management looks for their best interest and couldn't care less about you

Company has changed for the worse since Ted's death. Increasing competition will only make the environment even worse

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at Rogers Communications for more than 7 years

Pros- Good at organizing capitals (real estates, spectrum, and etc.)
- Internal opportunities exist
- Stable work hours
- Good benefits
- Good people around

Cons- Slow on decision making (process management)
- Lack of leadership/strategy (decisions are adjusted based on competitors)
- Willingness to change (hard to change the culture with many long serving employees)
- Need to balance better between Technology, Sales and Customers
- Very political between departments, too much focus on budget
- Putting most of the work to the front line, lack of support from the upper level

Advice to Senior ManagementHas a lot of improvement since I started working in the company. It probably takes time to make changes, and not all changes may take positive effects. There are few noticeable issues:
Lack of leadership from upper management - good idea to improve customer service, but upper management never showed their willingness to support (New features? 5 years plan?). It seems management are there to manage assets and buy time?
Complicated process - processes are too complicated, and require too many people to be involved, particularly for small project or minor changes from maintenance perspective.
Politics everywhere - difficult to make changes with politics everywhere. Re-org (layoff) took place once in a while, but little has changed.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
