Pros

Great Company that offers professional development. Big challenges of Project coordination due to all of them are International accounts therefore, those require a complete effort to understand the way of thinking and working culture

Cons

Lack of growth opportunities because senior managers are only focusing on USA, it requires better communication strategy to have full knowledge of decisions

Pros

Great sales commissions if you work at a good store.

Cons

Ridiculous quotas, monthly performance review metrics encourage to lie to customers in order to sell accessories. Shadiest reps and stores get recognition, customer service and professional sales people get fired.

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.
