Pros

Cellco aka Verizon Wireless is a true leader in the wireless industry. Employees tend to take genuine pride in knowing that they are working for a premier company. The culture of Cellco, during my time there, was generally one where employees were genuinly valued and were seen internally as the single biggest key to the company's sucess.

Cons

The wireless field in the US has matured a great deal and Cellco is as affected by this as it's competitors. Significant cuts have been made since I was laid off in February 2009 and there is considerably less oppotunity than there had been due to that. Things should improve after the recession lets up.

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.
