Pros

- Great company. Excellent Benefits and overall Total Comp package - Highly skilled and very professional co-workers - Lots of opportunities for Training, Improving your skills - Reasonable work-life balance except during peak periods (depends on what teams you are on)

Cons

- Growth to next level is extremely competitive and quite difficult unless you are very well connected within the company. Most promotions go to people in Basking Ridge - Comp package too traditional; minimal stock awards for all levels below Senior Director

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.
