Pros

Pay is OK, but hours are ridiculous right now. Still working after several rounds of layoffs.

Cons

40% of IT employees have been laid off in the last year and the jobs have been sent to India. On shore workers have to spoon feed off shore employees everything. Still have to validate their work and fix it. Land line managers have been replacing all of the wireless managers and we are taking on there negative culture. This is also the most racist place I have ever worked, upper management is almost all Indian males and they are eliminating everyone else. HR is allowing it, stress levels are through the roof.

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.
