Pros

It's a big and reputed company there are lot off opportunity if u get the ryt project to work upon. Lot of facility for women employee's and extra activities that happen to keep u motivated.

Cons

There are a lot of things I don't like but the most important one being even the smallest of thing can take a day to get done. Me being a developer like to get my hands on stuff and work and like to try new things but in order to get those things I have to struggle a lot. The higher authority only focuses upon the deliverables and not actually weather there are proper resources to accomplish that task.

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.
