Pros

Micromanaged almost every minute of the day. Not sure if that’s really a “pro”, but I couldn’t think of anything else.

Cons

Their retail stores are not a priority anymore. Or well, the employees at those stores aren’t. They’ve increased quotas to make it impossible to make the money we used to make, and simultaneously forcing us to do the work of all the people they’ve laid off.

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.
