Pros

Potential of company with proper leadership. Thousands of talented employees.

Cons

Middle leadership empire builders. Much of the greatness set forth by senior leadership is ignored or diluted as it makes its way through the L5-L3 managers. Extreme focus on diverse and college programs limits the opportunities for existing leaders regardless of ratings or benefit to the company.

Pros

Company strives for high standard in leadership. Expectations at each level extremely high. If you make it as a Director here, it means that your scope and span of work is huge. A director here can have as much challenge and responsibility as VPs or SVPs in other companies. Same for higher levels. Att is really a lean company for senior management and has few leadership opportunities.

Cons

The culture is so old fashioned, they are trying their best, but it is hard to move a company with hundreds of years in existence. There are a lot of Christians who happen to be leaders in the company and tell others their religion views and conservative notions. Beware. if you happen to be progressive or liberal. Promotions are hard to come by and they pay so little!!!. I know because I worked in HR and know how they compare with other companies. Very inflexible, change takes a long time. And for all the development stuff that they have, I wasn't impressed with their talent level. because talented people will leave a cheap and boring company.
