Pros

Benefits aren't bad. Not industry-leading but not rock-bottom either. Good medical, dental & vision. Tuition assistance of $8K per year.

Cons

Culture of micro-management. Shewed and untrustworthy HR, willing to take employees for a ride. Old workforce. Lack of young people. Not many opportunities for young people to grow into middle management. dozens of rounds of lay-offs over the years have left -once friendly- employees weary of each other and they're happy to stab each other in the back.

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.
