Pros

Flexible work timings,Exposure to critical projects early in career.very few good project with good teammates.No bench. Everyone is on a project.Good brand name associated with your Resume.If you work hard and your manager and subordinates are good and say in upper management then you grow at fast pace.

Cons

Company policies sucks. no reverse feedback mechanism.lot of favoritism by managers, autocracy by managers,indirectly forcing employees to work for more than 12 hrs,less Job security,Incompetent senior management in India, employees rated high for performance are not promoted but only employees who don't question the actions of supervisors are promoted. Utterly suicidal, consequences are already there to see, attrition rate is over 23%,People are just running away. Once you know the reality, u just want to run away.

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.
