Pros

Some really great people to work with and some teams have a better cultural experience. If you stick it out there is opportunities for advancement, but you must be willing to wait years and take a ton of overtime, ect to impress managers.

Cons

Extremely poor management and leadership. Very understaffed. Managers do not empower people. Sink or swim environment where people are not trained and developed for success. The sad part is that there are pockets of great teams with U.S. Cellular that have happy employees and high morale. My regional group is generally disorganized and treats employees as disposable. The heap on work until you break and replace you with the next lowest paid, unqualified person.

Pros

Pretty chill on slow days.

Cons

The actual breakdown of the bonuses just meeting quota isn't all that much for the effort put in. That said when you actually do exceed quota the extra cash feels extremely worth it!
