Pros

Paycheck. You are lucky to be employed in telecom at the present time. Countless CLEC's were snuffed by the monopoly players. SWB/SBC, AT&T, Verizon etc.

Cons

Absolute paranoia and hostile work environment. Rumor mill due to HR tactics of aura of continuous sewage talk of RIF. Employees compete against each other in lieu of a true teamwork effort. The culture is suspect at this time. The culture of the company has gone downhill since the GTE days.

Pros

Good Benefits. Free Phone. School reembursement

Cons

Politics play a role in career growth. Dont expect HR to help you if someone sexualy harasses you. Imcompetent management. The comission enviroment can become extremelly hectic with people fighting over sales. If you make a sale, the pay that you receive can be taken away from you if the cutomers switches servives.
