Pros

very good pay- salary very good compensation- bonus for hitting sales goals very good bonuses- cash for going beyond in sales note att sales consultants in call center atmosphere get more salary than most call center positions- on top of that if you work hard its pretty easy to hit 80k a year- if your lazy and non competitive like to take your time-- do not waste your time you will be let go- only after having a taste of what you can make. this is sales so if your new to it you may find yourself stressed out, i had never worked sales but am diligent and tweek my performance- work out great! I made my own luck by speeding up my results- changing the way I pitched different things and make a lot of money.

Cons

can be stressful- supervisors are cheerleaders that think they are doing something- gets on my nerves my suggestion keep the supervisors busy with running your sales and checking your orders- put them to work you are a worker ant at att- i mean to make big money you need to run a lot of calls which gets old - i counteracted this with taking a month and just kinda relaxing- not worrying about sales if your great at your job they wont bother you.

Pros

You have a job that pays bills

Cons

Upper management never pays for their mistakes. They make people at bottom level pay for their mistakes. For last 2 years we had very few projects. All of a sudden they dumped 2.5 years' projects on us and asked us to finish them by mid 2014. They don't care for our personal life. They suggest us to stop taking care of our family, stop sleeping and finish their work. No, they are not going to pay for all the extra hours we put in. AT&T shares very bad relationship with union employees. Once again we pay for it, whenever union employees goes on strike, they ask us to do their work. The union negotiations go on for 2 years for every 3 years, and if need arises, they call us back from vacation during these 2 years. So we can take vacations freely for the fear of getting called back. During AT&T and T-Mobile merger failure, AT&T had to pay 4 billion dollars to T-mobile as per agreement. Once again we had to pay for it, most of bottom level jobs were either laid off or off-shored to compensate for the loses. Whenever AT&T wants to cut down costs, once again they offshore bottom level jobs, they never offshore upper management jobs, as nobody wants to offshore their own job. Not that upper management jobs can't be offshored.
