Pros

Technology and working with our customers. Best network ever.

Cons

Absolutely terrible core of upper management. Pointing fingers at everyone and anyone but themselves. Unrealistic quotas to keep your pay in check. They have it down to a science now. They are not the company they used to be and I could list at least 50 names of hard working and loyal employees that "earned the right" to lifetime career with this company including myself and were either forced out by pay decreases or by simply letting them go by using unrealistic quotas . These were employees of over 5 or more years.

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.
