Pros

Good pay and benefits. Mostly nice co-workers only when not in the same team. Really good people in other BUs (US)

Cons

An insecure, immature and incompetent leadership team An extremely toxic company culture that equates employees to dollars saved. Highest employee turnover rate. Good people don't stay. Discriminatory and highly selfish middle management which can and will go to any extent to save its place at the cost of pride, conscience and morality. Honesty and broad mindedness are not practiced virtues. A spineless and effectively useless HR which can't and won't address the above.

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.
