Pros

All employees for the company were based in the United States. For the dept. I worked in we had casual dress, great supervisors. Our pay was great for our area (above the norm) and we were trained to think outside the box. Vacation days time off requests and medical were all great. Our dept. was comfortable with each other and knew we could get help from each other if needed. BEAR IN MIND OUR AREA WAS UNION CONTRACTED.

Cons

Cons would have to start with the fact that middle management would not stand up for their groups, instead they have a view of don't make waves and they won't be fired. Life balance was tough if you had used vacation and had any kind of emergency come up. Depts. were run like personal businesses so many of the benefits that one group had another group would be denied. Examples would be groups were allowed 4 -10 hr. shifts, work at home or part time, while others were told no. The company seemed to jump jobs around on where they could find the cheapest hourly or salaried wages.

Pros

I recieve positive leadership from my direct supervisor all the way up to VP level management. I am treated with respect and believe I am an integral part of the organization. I have received yearly raises and with 30 years of telecom service I receive 6 weeks of Paid Time Off. Also going all the way up to the President of our company, we are urged to have a life outside of work. We should be committed employees, but not at the cost of our family and friends. I have worked for Illinois Bell, AT&T, Indiana Bell, GTE, and Verizon and I have never received that message from them, way to go Maggie Wilderotter.

Cons

Everyone has so much to handle due to downsizings and no replacements when an employee leaves the company. When I take Paid Time Off, I don't feel like my backup can effectively do my job as well as their own responsibilities.
