Pros

Great benefits and a good sales commissions for the sales reps. The majority of the cowokers can be really great to talk to and work with.

Cons

Horrible managers that feed off of typical sales slogans or simply say no excuses when the majority of the time they are the sole reason for sale issues. EVERYTHING you sell is tracked like sports stats and are set at an extreme expectation for the month. Managers will hand off profitable sales to their friends and the unprofitable or hurtful sales are usually the only ones handed around.

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.
