      avoid it if you can but if you must work in the cell phone industry they're the strongest company financially

      Pros

      in todays economy they're the strongest cell phone company so provides some job security. there are always postions available. I'm not sure but i believe they pay the most among wireless providers

      Cons

      every year the company makes more money but they continue to cut the pay of sales reps and ask reps to do more. the volume of business we do every month makes the average commission per sale low. For example, my new activation quota for feb(a slow month) is 55 and 100 renewals or upgrades on existing customers. this will pay me around 1200 in commissions. a friend of mine at t-mobile his new activation quota was 15 and his commission check will be around 800. sure I make more total money but look at how much more work I have to do to get it-almost 4 times as much!

      Pros

      There are a few upsides to being affliated with this company. For one, there is brand name recognition. Secondly, in the days of no benefits and increasing health care costs, the company does provide relief there. If you're craft, in some territories you're guaranteed job security

      Cons

      a toxic environment that leads to depletion: piracy of ideas and results, accountability deficiency, and ever increasing demand for more from those who are strongly contribute while non-contributors, even detractors, receive same if not more attractive benefits from the former
