Pros

Great Network and Great Products to sell. Great Compensation! Great Benefits! Great opportunity for career advancement within the company.

Cons

Expect to put in long hours. All jobs are sales related and result in the companies bottom line. Everyday is about how you are going to accomplish your sales quotas and how you are going to exceed your customers expecations. If you have the time to put in and are truely dedicated to the work, you will go places with in this company. Burnout is easy if you stay in one postion to long. Always be looking for next position and fine tune your skill sets to get there. Managers will help but you have to ask for feedback on what to do to get better. (They tend to focus on the negative things.)

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.
