Pros

Good benefits, decent pay for a retail position, opportunities to earn commission, a good industry to be involved in with for future growth.

Cons

Terrible hours, but that's retail, not a good job for someone with a family. Bust your hump for not a lot of money relative to other sales positions, but again, that's retail. Not a good position for the long term but alright as a stepping stone to a better outside sales job within or outside the company.

Pros

Large corporation with huge potential for individuals to grow and move up in the organization.

Cons

Unfortunately every time they have bad profits for a quarter their answer is to layoff a large portion of their workforce to appease the stockholders

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.
