      Pros

      Big network, lots of challenges, largest ISP in the world

      Cons

      They don't have the money to do the job right. They can't hire enough people, they won't buy the right systems and software, and they don't back fill people. The people that end up staying are just resigned to the constant failures and half assed solutions. The good people all end up leaving if they can. They don't pay market rates for skills.

      Pros

      Ability to work remotely, wanting too share knowledge or learned skills with AI.

      Cons

      Treat people more like independent contractors and don't have centralized places to find information that it needed. There SharePoint sites are not easy to navigate.
