Pros

Reasonable salary, good people with which to work.

Cons

Constant drain of jobs to India. Cheap - they removed coffee as a work perk, for example. Always willing to lay off engineers and export the job to India - which screws up the delivery of product, both in time and quality (intern engineers may hire in India at a 5to1 ratio, but they can't perform well enough to make up the difference).

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.
