Herndon, VA

Current Employee – been working at Time Warner Cable full-time for less than a year

ProsFinancial stability is a positive given the state of the economy. If you perform here, you are guaranteed to retirement. Pension and restricted stocks offer great incentive for people to stay with the company.

ConsBusiness As Usual (BAU) is a favorite word used here. If you want entreprenuerial environment to capture market share and lead the industry, the company does not foster it.
There is no room for promotion or advancement.
Director position here is similar to senior manager position.

Advice to Senior ManagementSystem, People, and Process. Primary reason why the company is not efficient and moving fast.
