Business Outlook
Pros
Good salary and benefits (before they started taking the benes. away). Allowed for telecommuting which was great for productivity.
Cons
Huge bureaucracy , restructure/layoffs every 6 months but the execs who needed to go were just shifted into other roles. This is an organization that is uninterested in doing things any differently than how they've done them since the beginning. The culture is hard on new folks who want to be team players - there are no teams here - just bosses and employees. A co-worker of mine referred to working at AT&T as the 'POW Syndrome'. You just sit in your cube with your head down and hope that the constant chaos would somehow not affect you.
