Pros

Excellent benefits and outstanding corporate culture. Highly structured path to advancement.

Cons

Local culture can be a mixed bag. Have worked in a variety of departments and even in the same location, the culture can be vastly different. Employees are treated like kings in some and beggars in others. In some there is truly open communication and sharing of ideas and in others ideas do not seem to be appreciated and communication is closed. Also, there is little incentive to perform above the minimum. Bonuses are performance based but, once you reach management level, it requires such high level approval to get a high rating that it is discouraging. Raises also do not seem to be performance based. Highly structured path to advancement.

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.
