Pros

Competitive compensation Opportunity to gain FP&A experience in a large corporate environment Exposure to high-level financial processes and systems

Cons

Was hired under a hybrid work model (max 3 days in office), but the policy changed without notice to 5 days/week Office is only built for ~70% capacity, making it difficult to find a workspace upon arrival Forced return to office was accompanied by increased cafeteria prices and paid parking, despite limited availability Leadership inconsistencies — had a director who lacked relevant qualifications and was ultimately demoted; during that period, I carried responsibilities beyond my role Workspace logistics are poorly managed — I’ve been removed from available seating (like kitchen booths) due to events while trying to do my job Recently implemented time-tracking tool is inaccurate and reportedly used to terminate employees Low transparency and poor communication have created a culture of distrust and disengagement

Pros

1 of the best things about AT&T is the training you receive as a New Hire. The company sends you to a designated location for a month's worth of training. They teach you the basics of sales and how to maximize your customers in-store experiences. While at training if it is necessary, they will pay to put you in a hotel, give you an American Express card for daily meals and reimburse you for any travel expenses in a very timely manor. The training you receive is top of the line. Next, lets talk pay. At&t pays their employees extremely well. With a base salary with paid overtime and full benefits and a compensation program, you won't want to leave the company just for that reason. They take care of their employees for the time you spend with them. Room for advancement. At AT&T moving up is a breeze if your motivated and a hard working individual. My current assistant store manager has only been with the company 10 months and is already looking at becoming a small business rep.

Cons

The work and life balance. The hours are long and tiring to the point were when you get home all you want to do is sleep and on your days off as well. Customers you have to deal with and the ability for a sales rep to control the interaction . That is one of the biggest complaint I have about the company. A lot of times customers come into the store hot and as sales reps we don't have the discretion or ability to waive ridiculous fees or fix issues. Everything seems like it has to be refereed to customer care which makes for a bad customer experience in store.
