Pros

The company itself allows you to work from home, work from a remote location, or use varieties of innovative workforce management. They'll do things that no other company will; possibly because this company has been around longer than most people have been alive, and there were workforce methods back then (telecommuting being the biggest) that have survived until now. There are a TON of places to go within the company, be it landline or wireless, and I don't think anyone's come close to a salary ceiling yet. The company has a lot of money and doesn't mind sharing it with the employees.

Cons

Because it's such a ridiculously massive clusterfrack of a company, it's really difficult to get anything company-related done. Do you need a job reference? Good luck! Want to verify your employment, for a check loan, or another job? LOL, HAVE FUN. It took me FOUR HOURS to get ahold of a single human person at HR, who then proceeded to tell me that she worked in a different department and that I needed to call AT&T landline HR. She gave me a number that was disconnected. The company is so big that it doesn't know about the other half of itself.

Pros

AT&T is a great place to work if you don't mind working over the telephone with the majority of your co-workers. People are generally nice, but you don't form a relationship with your co-workers because you are mostly working over the phone with them. You are constantly surrounded by intelligent people who can really help to develop your professional career.

Cons

Too much overhead, morale is low during these hard economic times. The corporate environment does not allow for fast decisions. Projects that should take only a few weeks end up being dragged out over the course of 6 months to a year or longer.

Pros

The best reason to work at ATT is the opportunity to work from home and not be challenged by going into an office everyday.

Cons

In sales the pressure is from Management who constantly hound the SALES team to do whatever it takes to win business.
