Pros

Salary seems to be good for some positions. Time off is great - 20 days for a employee with 10 years plus 3 floating holidays plus 5 kincare days plus 1 volunteer day plus 3 personal business days plus 5 sick days. If you like relocation, the available jobs will give you plenty of opportunity to relocate. They do offer a bonus that is significant, but you do not know what you will be bonused on until AFTER the time period for the bonus is pased.

Cons

Management communication is severly lacking. The business plan for the US Services group to support US Cellular networks is not sustainable. The company is activly trying to outsource as much work as they can to lower paying countries. There is a lot of red tape within the company. It is easy for poor performers to avoid their responsibilties and hide. Management only gives lip service to wanting employees to be happy and suceed. In the past two years there have been pay cuts for approximately 10% of the workforce and no pay raises across the board. The billing rate for work done for US cellular companies is below most people's pay rate, so expect more outsourcing and layoffs as well as the requirement that exempt employees work longer hours.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
