Review from Engineering Dept
I’m leaving the company because I found another organization that is willing to pay more. CenturyLink requires me to commute 50 miles to our engineering office alwhen we have an office 25 miles from my house. I feel they can offer more flex time. Very slow increasing rate of PTO earned.

They basically stole from the employees, veteran or otherwise and gave that money to the board, shareholders, and VPs. It's just greed and they've left the customers behind.
