Pros

reliable company, not going anywhere due to monopoly, amazing benefits, generally good people to work with, you get a good number of vacation and sick days, and opportunity to somewhat advance

Cons

The management gets to jerk you around like you wouldn't believe, and they make all the $ while doing the minimal work. Most of them are utterly incompetent and wastes of life. I've worked in many departments and with many other departments, inside the office, and on technicians outside. Most hourly wage workers there are very, very unhappy, and you can tell looking at their faces. The company likes to change your shift every 6 months based on their metric system (which goes against any rules they may say of helping the customers the most, caring for them ,etc...oh and don't want to work evenings suddenly...too bad) . You will get treated like it's a kindergarten. They preach one thing but want you to do the other, you have too many bosses, working there is so much like the movie Office Space it's not even funny. (oh and do your TTS tickets, for everyone who calls in, even if they just hang up instantly or misrouted calls). One of the worst experiences I've ever had and I was there for multiple years.

Pros

Decent starting pay, good company benefits, discounted services, room for advancement. Good people to work with. Countless incentives for good prizes on a regular basis.

Cons

Constant changes to policies procedures, some degree of micro management, metric system does not take trends into consideration, example day shift vs night shift. You get more out of working the day shift then you could ever get during the night shift. Not much help from supervisors, any questions are met with push back in a very political way of course.

Pros

Learn people skills, stay on top of emerging technologies, ongoing education, great benefits

Cons

Often time new equipment & products are deployed before decent testing has been done. Front line employees are micro-managed and are often looked at as nothing but numbers there to line the pockets of the highly paid executives
