Pros

Money is substantial Benefits are top tier The company isn’t going under anytime soon

Cons

60 hour weeks no OT Company car only once you’ve driven to your garage- not for commute Weekends and late nights Days start at 630am and end around 5pm Short staffed at the first level management level Constantly changing priorities, very demanding job with no appreciation outside of paychecks Zero investment in talent development of existing first level management Upward/lateral mobility is almost nonexistent unless it will benefit your boss/bosses

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.
