Pros

In mid-2000's this company was employee-focused, customer-focused and an incredible place to work. Then-CEO Jack Rooney believed in the Dynamic Organization and created a brand that was reliable, relatable and different. Benefits are good, and although pay is not nearly as good as it used to be, it is a great stepping stone and learning environment for new sales associates. Training and support are excellent.

Cons

US Cellular is no longer a Dynamic Organization. It is in line, or even behind, it's competitors in terms of pricing and understanding customers. Sales employees project an air of unhappiness and wait times can be horrendous in-store, sometimes across entire markets. Employee compensation has steadily declined over the past 8 years, resulting in lower income and more work. Leadership has had to reverse it's "employees first" stance to project the new business model of "company first."

Pros

great culture, amazing co-workers, great pay, great benefits. I really liked working there. I would still be there if not for the vacation/shift bid system.

Cons

I found that the vacation bid and shift bid systems were too much to deal with. only 6 sick days a year and you can't use vacation days as sick days. I could never get the days off I needed.

Toxic middle management environment, work/life balance does not exist, encouragement to work while on vacation, allusions that if you dont work during vacation your boss may lose his job
