Pros

good educational opportunities. good union pension plan. the front line people are excellent to work with. the benefits plan is fairly decent.

Cons

low morale among employees. low morale among management professionals. continuous degradation of front line jobs due to contracting out. Contractors do low quality work and employees have to clean it up after them. Some managers over-use the "management rights" clause in the collective agreement, usually due to their lack of skill in their handling of resources. Micro managing managers due to lack of management training -- managers with no telecom experience trying to manage long-term, experienced, professional employees. And really ugly company clothes.
