Pros

Healthy competition, excellent pay, other performance incentives, tuition reimbursement, excellent investment options in 401k with 6% company match, excellent benefits, paid and encouraged overtime

Cons

Not a lot of mobility unless you are a top performer in the region, many reps use shady sales tactics and are not honest, HIGH amount of pressure, poor management, lots of negativity, job security very low, terrible work/life balance (retail hours), lots of favoritism, I must say again POOR management... I wonder how some of the managers got into the position they did.

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.
