Pros

Good benefits - 401k matched 100% first day, health insurance benefits also from day one. Tuition assistance Overall market fair salary

Cons

Horrible feedback process Management is sink or swim My first 5 months there I received a review that only highlighted negative aspects and made it seem that I sat on the job for 5 months without doing anything. I quickly reached out to HR, it was the first time I had even seen what I was being evaluated on. Everything and anything that went wrong on my first project was blamed on me as a new hire even though I was there in my first month and I wasnt given time to address what happened!! Management provide feedback with no explantion or disscussion. Aside from that there was a restructuring of the department that also took place. Promotional growth is non existence - Mostly lateral. Very political environment.

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.
