Advertise like the Jetsons, but the company runs like the Flintstones
Pros
The vacation can be good. you get 3 weeks after 7 years, and 4 weeks after 15 years, 5 weeks after 25 years. 401k is good The benefits are just average benefits, and they've gotten worse since the BellSouth/AT&T merger The tuition assistance is good and it give employees an opportunity to better themselves.
Cons
There is a real concern from my fellow coworkers regarding a lack of solid training. We are learning "on the fly" in most cases. Very frustrating. We have weak managers. The lack of managerial experience really shows when dealing with outside contractors. It's embarrasing to see. Condescending attitudes are prevalent in our department, which leads to level consciousness. Our director has never had a conversation with me, yet our old director under BellSouth called me out of the blue to see how my family was doing and how i was fitting into my position. Imagine that!
