      Pros

      I've seen a handful of promotions since being there. The benefits are solid and the pay is decent. The work location on the west side of Madison is good too. The Monday through Friday hours are nice too.

      Cons

      Alot of micromanagement in my opinion from various levels (sales coach, seniors, supervisor). Also in my opinion there seems to be some inconsistency in how they handle unexcused abscences in my department which is frustrating, kills morale and has caused me to lose some respect for my immediate boss. In my opinion there also seems to be some inconsistent handling of employees that arent giving 100% effort and spend more time chit chatting with co-workers even while customer calls are waiting in queue.

      Not a bad place to work, depending on what department you're in.

      Pros

      TDS offers a good balance between work and personal life by providing a fairly generous paid time off schedule. Also, the benefits package is generous and provides good opportunities for retirement savings (pension, 401 (k) and stock purchase plan).

      Cons

      Tunnel vision by upper management, who are overly concerned with forcing square pegs into round holes. This "one size fits all" style of management hinders creativity, autonomy and initiative. A failure to acknowledge criticism of this style of management only aggravates the problem.
