Pros

Benefits are pretty good./ Opportunity to establish yourself at a Fortune 500 company/ Commission opportunity is basically ok because the quota rises to make it more difficult to exceed quota

Cons

One downside is the the retail schedule obviously. Management can call you in to work and you may be required to work overtime just to make minimum quota requirements. Endless conference calls for no reason but to hear people try to impress others.

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.
