Pros

It was great to always be able to meet and help people. You got to form bonds with customers, take ownership of them in a way. I guess more like the customer took ownership of you, brought you all their business and referred people to you.

Cons

Typical office politics...which only got worse after the Alltel merger. The monthly review and annual review are almost completely unrelated; there needs to be consistency. The key points of the reviews also sometimes are in conflict with the corporate buzz line of the month/year, which sometimes caused a moral dilemma between doing what is right by the customer and doing what will keep you employed.

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.
