Pros

The people are very nice and easy to work with. This is mainly because there is barely any kind of competitiveness. Everyone is just in the same roles for years.

Cons

There were layoffs every 6 months since i started there. No sense of loyalty to employees moving people around way too much. Due to the instability theres no encouragement to grow in your job. Very unstable and uncomfortable work environment.

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.
