Pros

Very clean, comfortable work environment. Access to new and upcoming cell phone technology. Employee discounted service plans. Excellent tuition reimbursement program.

Cons

Speed is emphasized greatly over almost every other metric. Unfortunately remotely diagnosing cell phone problems with a person who is not an expert can sometimes lead to some very long calls which will damage your stats. There is very little communication between the call center and the network technician whom you create trouble tickets for. Hands can be tied when it comes to trying to save a customer. Very little opportunity for advancement out of the call center and into another department.

Pros

Great pay, great benefits. I had the ability to work remotely and hybrid during my 25 years. Had mostly good experiences and appreciate the time I worked there.

Cons

Unexpected layoffs, but those are pretty common these days.

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.
