I wonder if investors know about these . How can a network be reliable after these nonsense it's complete?

10yrs, more like 1-2yrs or less. Lets not forget that the state agreement is set to expire soon. Once that happens there will be an even heavier increase in contractors, with the exception of union shops.
everyone everywhere is going for cheaper labor,doesnt matter what company.ask ATT fiber splicers how their doing....
up youre 401k percentage cause in 10 years were all unemployed.
Let's do ourselves a favor and not. Complain about contractor workmanship. Let the customers do all the complaining. Why help them learn from their mistakes. If you get the go back and they mess up . Fix it and move on. Reporting it to management will only make them better .
They had contractors working on Sunday running fiber! So why can’t in-house guys get OT? All the OT and work is going to contractors!!
First off...the fiber being used is not armored. Its actually made for conduit and has no armor at all. No protection. Why they are putting non armored fiber in the air is not a good move. Its susceptibility to electrical arcs and animal damage is very high. Maybe because it's cheaper and has less prep time. But not a smart move for the long haul. They should switch to aerial armor. Thats all Cablevision used. And lash it, not the self support c-ap that sags. They should switch going forward for better reliability.
I got let go a couple months ago. Best thing that ever happened to me. Was unemployed for about 2 weeks tops. Started my own business and got another job. I felt miserable working here. Ever since they cut the OT it was a regular job to me. Left making $27 an hour and now making $33. There are jobs out there guys for those looking to get out. I feel for the couple of friends that I have are still working here and complain about this place. Get out and look if NOT stop b*tching!!!!!
Don’t you guys get it by now. THEY DO NOT CARE! Unless your a union shop they’ll have contractors rolling up on bicycles 🚲 doing work. Cheapest labor possible. I feel bad for all the at will techs that have no protection whatsoever. I’m sorry, you guys do have protection, I forgot that management told you guys that everything would be fine & that their word is their bond............................PSYCH! Can’t believe you fell for those lies🤪😜🤓🤣😂🤡
Please tell me your joking, you just smoking right🤔? If not, you should be banned from here.
He said "heavy armor" didn't he
Ihtz, you can run over fiber with a heavy equipment roller and nothing will happen to it because of the heavy armor. And I think you are just making up stories.p--pp--pp--p
In house out house doesn’t matter Altice does not want to pay period make a mistake Mr Highly skilled contractor or when they decide not to pay, your company you’ll find out these guys are straight up con artist the ponzi is in full affect. Did I spell anything wrong mr spellcheck have a blessed Sunday stay woke people.
If you don't know the difference between using the correct word "this" versus "these", you probably don't have a clue how to do your job anyway.
"Guess are contracts aren't keeping those jobs protected!"
Don't need a contract because these the way it's going. There will be work for the next decade will some of the stuff going on out there.
Better than in-house? Lol you’ve gotta be kidding me. You have these guys leaving fiber on the ground for days at a time, letting cars run over the fiber at rush hour. Also splicers leaving can down on the ground after splicing for days because they pulled up to the site in a car and not in a work vehicle. Altice is a complete JOKE! Say what you want.
Guess are contracts aren't keeping those jobs protected!
It’s funny reading some of these comments knowing which ones are pruuuuh gosh.
I used to see a lot of sub contractors working for us when we need some extra help and believe me when I said that they are very highly skilled on what they do. I even learned a lot of techniques from them.
Not sure if the in-house knew what they were doing anyway.
They were doing it because they are better than you bunch of cry babies. They work hard not you in house that always complaining.
Report to ICE make America great again
Is this for real?
How do they profit?
