The ship

There are good people. There is positive intent. People want to win. The root problem is misguided decisions, caused by rapid leadership change and lack of understanding. Operationally windstream can not deliver a good experience. Distraction and... — read more

Windstream's Corporate Motto's REAL meaning

Whenever anyone hears the phrase; Stream On! That simply means that the exec has just said or done something stupid. When said by anyone else, it means they are a submissive bootlicker.

Why are the C-Level Exes Lie

Do you honestly think the employees, past or present are so stupid as not to see that executives are starting threads on here. If you are on any hands on call or read Stream, then you know. This is the level that they will sink to. They say it's not... — read more

I hate what this company has turned into

I used to love working here. Now every day one of the first things I do is check this page to see if there were any new rumors of possible layoffs. How sad is that? Working with no job security is neither good for the employees nor the employer (I... — read more

Stream Post Scrubbing

Voluntary layoffs?

Anybody knows if Windstream ever offers voluntary layoffs? Like many here, I'm tired of having no job security and I'm more than willing to move on, but I'm too scared to do it without some safety net - which would be provided by a severance package... — read more

Lay Off tomorrow??

So my mgr has been behind closed doors for the last 2 weeks,, which is what she cowardly does when a layoff approaches. Will there be a layoff tomorrow 3/1???

Too much IQ, not enough wisdom...

There's some folks on Stream that want to be fired and call it retaliation. Convinced of this. It's hard to wrap your head around I know, but marketing/advertising matter even when your stock has tanked. Every aspect of a business doesn't grind to a... — read more 

its quiet

Have the peasant cattle of Windstream settled down and the fear subsided? While they continue to work their mediocre, dismal, underpaid jobs lol?

Why Windstream has failed.

In order to understand the chain of events that have caused Windstream’s current predicament, one must address the recent history of the company; specifically years 2010-2011. In 2009, Windstream was a relatively healthy company with roughly 7.7b in... — read more

2 weeks notice with Windstream

Anyone who has left Windstream and still had remaining PTO and Optional holiday along with Sick Time. Do you get paid for that if you don't use it or do you use it all? Been trying to reach HR about this.
