Pros

Decent benefits. My group allows working from home. Supportive direct management. Will assist with tuition reimbursement.

Cons

Direct managers have large impact. I am fortunate to work in a group that supports a healthy work/life balance and allows us to work from home occasionally. That can change very quickly between groups under different directors. Company has a hard time "pushing back" on larger customers. Most career opportunties seem to be in DC and NYC/NJ area. Comapny sends out plently of communications, to the point where it just becomes noise. Morale varies, and you must remember this is old MCI/Worldcom.

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.
