Pros

great employee discounts on service competitive benefits able to accrue lots of paid time off

Cons

Focus is on sales, agents are penalized for taking the time for technical troubleshooting & customer education. Most technical support reps are non-technical and training is focused on navigating problem ridden software & translating service call into sales call. Techs are rewarded for cutting calls short (resulting in repeat calls for the same issue) and selling additional services, not for fixing problem and keeping customers

Pros

Fun Atmosphere, Provided professional development support and advice, interesting products. Strong affiliation with community organization and good volunteer programs. The work I did as an intern was substantial and developed me for my future career in the media industry.

Cons

The company refuses to acknowledge the tough competition it faces against Verizon and is not doing enough to innovate its products and services to meet the environment Verizon is creating.
