Monroe-based CenturyLink is one of the largest Louisiana-based public companies. It employs 2,700 workers in Louisiana and has a Louisiana payroll of around $200 million.
Recently, the company purchased Colorado-based Level 3. Level 3 CEO Jeff Storey is set to become the new CEO of CenturyLink in 2019. However, Storey is planning on staying in Colorado and won't move to Monroe. That has set off fears that the company is planning to leave Louisiana.
