Pros

benefits are great but thats about it.

Cons

the company constantly changes and whats funny is they will tell you this up front( its even apart of their "credo") but what they don't tell you is change 99% of the time = less money. the company a few years ago was a great place to work. i've been with them for over 5 years and have seen tons of people come and go. what i can tell you is of the people i started the company with most are gone. none of the managers are the same! the hiring process is a joke. if your best friends with the right person you will get promoted or hired. this company is no longer a cell phone company, it cant make up its mind what it wants to do. let me break down how your first year will go. training you will think Verizon is the best thing ever. you'll go through your ups and downs for a few months then you realize all the meetings, including the meetings on your days off that u still have to go to are pointless, insane schedule of retail, and dealing with a joke of a management system are NOT worth your time. find something else like i'm trying to do!

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.
