Pros

Great benefits, work-life balance, decent pay plus commission, great co-workers, team spirit, treated with respect and professionalism. Great place to gain many new skills and experiences. The culture and values here are amazing, especially if you believe in doing business in a transparent, ethical way.

Cons

US Cellular had a lot of potential but unfortunately the senior execs have fallen asleep at the helm. They talked about winning, being #1, and being able to quickly react to industry and technological changes but it was just talk and no actual plan. Towards the end of my tenure, senior management failed to recognize THEIR own errors and started blaming the retail consultants by demanding ridiculous quotas and started firing people, who in the spirit of the D.O.'s openness, expressed logical and reasonable concerns to sales and store managers. The pressure to sell is now incredible but how can you sell when the services and especially prices are not competitive?!?! They also started to take away programs that differentiated US Cellular from the rest of the wireless companies and then had the audacity to continue claiming that we were still different regardless of the absence of the unique programs. (Battery swap, 30 day guarantee, started charging activation and upgrade fees, etc).

A place of growth that seems to be bending to industry challenges.

Pros

Amazing Training. I was able to become a better me. Had an amazing experience throughout. The focus on the customer was staggering and we really stood out from the competition.

Cons

We have gone from changing too slow to the feel of changing too quickly. Picking up the Iphone way too late in the game. Roll out of the new POS system has been an abomination. There has been a lack of realism when things have been addressed from Execs down to the retail stores and call centers.
