Pros

Decent pay, very good benefits. The telecomm industry changes rapidly, so there is usually something new to learn. A few long-term employees who have managed to embrace the suck.

Cons

The management practices date from the 1800's. HR is out to get you. Managers have to go against corporate policies to be human and decent to you. Or even to socialize with you. Very bottom-line oriented in a short-sighted way on the software side. Waterfall process. Over-reliance on H1B workers. The business is cold and hostile and employees are just a means to an end. Everybody has to work against that to get through the day.

Pros

A great company overall. I has great benefits package.

Cons

The way the company is run is a bit slipshod. The trend is to be google-like, but fails on so many levels. Management doesn't really care about the workers, just as long as the job is done. There is a pretense that management cares, but your response falls on deaf ears.
