Pros

For young engineers, you can learn a lot about technology. Barrier for entry in telecom is very high for startups. Therefore, this company will survive with its mediocre management and products, while selling competitor products. If you want to hide and do a 9 to 5 job with good benefits, you can do that here without much trouble. Heck you might even get promoted to a Manager, VP/GM, but you'll have to take your naps in meetings.

Cons

Too much processes, I think even the US GOVT has less processes Team of B Grade management at best. Management likes to keep status quo by not hiring and promoting people that are better and smarter. A players leave and join other Silicon Valley companies. New managers quit within months after realizing change needs getting rid of the whole management structure and dead weight. There are people managers and technical managers and managers of all sorts

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
