      Pros

      Great earnings opportunity for driven sales professionals; outstanding training and continued industry, product, and service education; Great benefits package, especially the 100% match on first 6% of 401K contributions; Mobility is unlimited and it's a fairly easy process to move from one location to another within the same position

      Cons

      Mid-level management prevents advancement of junior employees; Overall, this company does not value education as a means of professional growth and advancement, even though they offer tuition reimbursement; Windfall system for commissioned employees is unfair and robs those able to achieve superior sales performance of earned commissions in excess of a predetermined percentage amount

      Great place to work in sales.

      Cons

      Pros

      Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

      Cons

      Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
