Pros

Great benefits and competitive pay, several areas of growth in the business especially for dev hardware/software groups.

Cons

Company culture changed in the last 5 or so years. They seem to be more concerned about "the bottom line" with no employee appreciation or attempts at keeping those that contribute to the company, which will hurt them in a the long-run as more seasoned employees move to greener pastures and are replaced with less-skilled, less loyal temp/contractors. The most recent reorganization and layoff seems to have been the largest negative impact to employee morale in at least a decade (and we've weathered many re-orgs over the years).

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.
