Fibertel, LLC.

This company will demand more of you physically, mentally, and emotionally then you can ever expect. You will constantly be asked to work overtime and will be expected to work it no matter what is happening in your life outside the office. Expect unrealistic deadlines, lack of communication, and a constant "fire-extinguishing" on issues that could have been resolved with simple managing and communication. 

The company has potential, but they lack the communication and the willingness to ask for help or voice their true concern when they need it most. This causes so many issues that go unresolved and/or get pushed to the breaking point.

I probably can't go into detail on here, but there was an internal company issue going on that cause major issues with employees, managers, and the one of the owners that really made it difficult to work there. If you're blood related or share the same moral compass, or lack thereof, as one of the owners, you're guaranteed to get away with WHATEVER you want with only a slap on the hand.

One last thing, expect to be given positive and uplifting reviews for your hard work; praises for going the extra mile; a pay bump for the increases of responsibility; and "fired" for made up reasons that are completely opposite of the signed and noted documents in your employee file because your supervisor just 'doesn't like you'. Also, don't expect a copy of your employee file when requested because you will get blown under the rug and shunned from everyone there for made up stories.

It's ultimately up to you to decide our employment choice, but I would NEVER recommend working here to anyone!

Sincerely,

An employee whose never had a back recommendation from a previous employer

Fibertel is a growing company and there is always work to be done. One thing that impresses me about the company is that they always offer on-site training, so if you are attentive and willing to learn, you are already pretty qualified for the job. 

The leadership is very hands-on with the daily needs of the company as well as the employees, and it is easy to communicate those needs with them. Because it is construction, there is a constant flow of tasks to be done and deadlines to be met, which creates the opportunity/need for overtime in many circumstances. This can make some days/weeks stressful, but there are ebbs and flows and the people here are supportive and make it fun even when it's really busy. Getting things done is honestly up to the individual here, and you have to balance your own tasks with interruptions that will arise as needs from the field pop up throughout the day. There is a constant flow of work, which can be a pro if you prefer to stay busy but also a con if being "always on" feels overwhelming to you.

Fibertel functions like a family/mom&pop company but recently underwent an acquisition and is now a part of Quanta Services, Inc., which is probably the largest construction company in the nation. This transition isn't always easy but the leadership is still in-house and very involved as we have been transitioning to the new requirements and processes of a corporate company.

At first I really liked working there, but I felt like I was treated a little differently when I got pregnant. Mind you at the time I didn’t see it but looking back on in I felt like the only time I was treated better was if they thought I was going to go back to work. I ended up not because that’s what was best for my family. The work was stressful at times but I actually like work that pushes me to learn and do some problem solving. It wasn’t unnecessarily stressful. It was more of the culture that I look back on and wish they were more accepting and understanding of peoples learning curves and personal lives. They have the type of work that can definitely be done from home, especially the work I was doing would have been so easy for me to access at home but they wouldn’t allow it so I had to leave. I understand they needed to lookout for the company’s best interest I just feel like I was judged for being there shy of a year when I wanted to try to keep working with them. Didn’t feel like management was particularly supportive of me. 

Poor support, no tools, no PM system, one-person fleet operation. Mechanic should think twice before taking this job. no proper diagnostic scanner for fleet
This is the type of support challenge you will face working there. You will often feel like you are operating as a one-person team, trying to manage everything on your own without the necessary support from Fleet Operations to schedule and implement a proper PM program. Additionally, there has been a lack of support from Fleet leadership, including the Director of Fleet, as well as local management in San Jose. Concerns have been brought forward, but they often feel like they are not being addressed or acted upon.





The work environment at fibertel is toxic and not healthy. Say goodbye to your freetime and family if you work here. If you have any sort of commitment outside of fibertel you will not progress here. If you are national army/air guard, reserves you won't last here. You will be put in the worst most sketchy equipment due to your commitment to the country. You will face persecution. It really just isn't worth your time here. Move on and look somewhere else. You will be better off.

What is the best part of working at the company?
There is no best part working here.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working here,everything here is stressful !!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
If you are not old friends with higher ups you won't keep you job. They will just use you until they move their people in your place.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Chaos and being told lies just to set you up for failure.

Fibertel is a wonderful company to work at for with career advancement opportunities. I worked there for over 7 years and had many different roles within the company never did i feel unsupported or un challenged. I like the high pace work atmosphere but most of all i enjoy the family culture and team spirt. I would highly recommend Fibertel to anyone looking to pursue a career in Telecommunications.    

Entire company is calculatingly dishonest; lacking integrity - they say to talk with them about office policies, to let them know where they can improve; however, they turn a deaf ear and blind eye. The person bringing this forward is afterward is met with contempt.
Pay is terrible, training nonexistent.


This place is bad, and it's only getting worse.  The management is a joke, they don't keep their word on pay, and leads/foremen will watch you while you work your tail off.  My time here was so terrible, I don't put it on my resume.

Great companies with amazing benefits! FiberTel offers careers not jobs! They want to see you advance in all areas. Speak up to your managers and they will get you the resources you need!
