Pros

Pay and Benefits. The "new" management didn't have a clue what needs to be done to run a telecommunication comapny. The think a cable trouble should be fixed in an hour. They have no idea it involves testing and repair. Their only concern is what looks good on paper, not the quality of service.

Cons

Constant "micro managing" by supervision. Some management will never admit they made a mistake. They hate our union, Communication Workers of America. Employee morale is the lowest of all the years I have worked here. I am so glad I was able to leave; otherwise, I probably would have had a heart attack from the stress level.

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.
