Pros

The position does in fact pay money If you're good at sales and competent with technology you can make a decent amount of money in commissions. That said when you cap out your commissions you're looking at maybe an extra thousand a month.

Cons

Management is openly bigoted. Slurs at the workplace constantly. They don't like when you ask them to knock it off. They also will fire you if you say you don't like ICE agents.

Pros

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Cons

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
