Pros

If you are a woman and having babies to milk the Health/Pregnancy benefits. If you are all about being a salesman, the company rewards sales heavily. Such as commissions and compensation for sales, even in other channels besides 'sales'. Industry is monopolized, and the company does not need to share much of the wealth beyond protecting itself against the ever growing threat of Unionization.

Cons

Very short-term company with a very short-term strategy of making as much cash as possible in the shortest timeframe. No real long term strategy. Leadership not knowledgeable of technology or direction things will go beyond 5 years. Very short-sighted business model and management of employees. Very afraid of unions, giving short-term benefits vs. any real long term stability.

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.
