Pros

Multiple career path opportunities, investment in training/education/skill development, great health benefits, forward thinking company, diverse employment practices, long term stability and competitive pay structure

Cons

very large company, not all employees are held accountable for their contributions (or lack of), easy to "hide" and just collect a check, Telecom division is being held hostage by union contracts which gives direct competitors the upper hand who do not employ union workers

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.
