Pros

Coworkers. 3 wks vacation. Cafeteria onsite.

Cons

Incompetent managers who use bullying and threats to lead by intimidation. Constant fear of being laid off. Completely unrealistic savings targets, having to treat suppliers rudely and unfairly, all to squeeze pennies out of them. No motivation or engagement, hearing how great a company it used to be from long timers. Overall, just a sad and frustrating place to work. Non competitive pay.

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.
