Pros

Flexible schedule, peers are nice and professional

Cons

Lot of offshore contracting have caused many people to lose their jobs for years and continues to be the case. Layoffs consistently occuring. High manager turnover. Can take upwards to a year or longer to put paperwork through for a promotion. Benefits are horrible, expect to pay the bulk of expenses out of your own pocket. Entirely too much red tape to get anything done.

Pros

Great place to gain knowledge on Telecomm technologies. Great springboard for future jobs in the Telecomm industry.

Cons

This is a very political company. Any upward move in the corporate ladder is based on how well you are politically connected within the company and often this is not based on your competence and job performance.

Pros

Leadership within the organization. Trust among team members. The room to grow within such a large and diverse organization. A person can start as a tier one help desk and work their way in to the director position within that organization or transition to another group and become just as successful.

Cons

Communication, between corporate and clients based on terms of contracts. Sometimes the needs of the client outway the rights or integrity of the employee. Which is not in the best interest corporation long term. Corporate goals do not always consider protecting there best asset, the people that drive the company and make at&t what it is today.
