Vantaggi

The company phone and discount on your personal cell account. They do give you training before you start working in the store, although it is very basic sales and if you have been in any basic business college courses you will be bored to tears by the end of the week. Like all big companies they spend a great deal of money on training their employees even if they realize that they will be gone in 6 months. If you like dealing with people on a daily basis then this is a good position for you but it may also make you somewhat burnt out when it comes to dealing with the public.

Svantaggi

Hours, high turnover, ethical issues, shady salespeople. The company is run to make money and they seem to keep getting more greedy and care less and less for their employees. If you work hard and beat your quota they will just raise your quota the next month, then if you have a lean month they will write you up for not hitting your numbers. The company is not run well in the lower levels of management and the turnover rate is very high. I was in college at the time and they had told me before I accepted the positon that they would be flexiable with my schedule, simply untrue.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
