I feel exactly the same way. Worked for a big american Telco company that is universally hated everywhere (but unknown enough here in Europe so that they manage to hire) and I feel this is exactly how contracts of this kind worked.
We would hear that this or that product was forced on us because this or that senior executive's friend/relative owned the company producing that product.
Fighting against having to use crappy tooling because of this was one of the nuisances that we'd have to deal with a few times a year.
- killingtime74 5y agoVerizon right
- Dansvidania 5y agoI would rather not confirm or deny, but I find it funny that apparently telco companies in the US share a considerable amount of hate; enough for you to have to wonder :D maybe it is a location-based hatred distribution?
- Red_Leaves_Flyy 5y agoI've hated every Telco I've ever used, except the first. The first was a small local cell provider that kept my prepaid cell phone in service for months after my funds expired. Since then I've been plagued with terrible service (customer and signal), random outages, near fraudulent billing practices, sketchy offers, high pressure sales in stores, overage fees, arbitrary fees, continuously increasing bills, etc.
- javajosh 5y agoCould easily be Telekom, which is T-Mobile in Europe. But yeah, it's one of those.
- burntoutfire 5y agoIt's not American though.
- javajosh 5y agoIndeed, but it bought Sprint last April, so it's got some American DNA now.
