Pros

Pay is good as long as you dont mind not doing anyting but work, dont plan on seeing your family

Cons

70 Hour work weeks, Management doesnt give a cr** about their employees expect to get calls at 8pm because your manager wants to help you edit the comments on your time sheet. Manager didnt have a problem calling me a liar on a conference call with clients, and generally put me down. Manager was derisive, and made several of my coworkers upset to the point of breaking down. He was one of the "successfull" managers under a "successful" director. You get the idea

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.
