Pros

Good footprint in Telco industry Huge company potentially offering the change to move around within it Decent salary and benefits Flexible hours and good work-life balance Good product set

Cons

Probably too large for its own good - bureaucracy, internal politics and in-fighting detract from smooth operations and procedures Still coming to terms with handling services as opposed to network infrastructure projects Companies that it has bought are not assimiliated well, and just end up being another sub-division within the company, but still retaining much of their old management, culture etc. Their way of working - processes etc are byzantine and create extra work

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
