I've been with the company for 6.5 yrs, started with AT&T Wireless now AT&T Mobility and everything keeps getting worse.
Pros
My top best reasons to working for AT&T Mobility: 1. I enjoy the group I work with. We are extremely close and consistently ensure everyone is ok with their workload and offer to assist whenever possible. The fact that you have a team that is much like a family raises your moral tremendously. 2. I kind of get a free phone. With AT&T Wireless i had free minutes free txt messages free picture messages and unlimited internet, I only had to pay for roaming and long distance at a discount. Now I get limited minutes (that I usually go over) limited txt messages (again that I go over) and if want any bumps in minutes I have to pay more than a consumer for less. Let’s see what happens when AT&T enforces their employee plan. 3. Its a paycheck. Not a top of the line paycheck but it gets me through my day to day expensive. 4. I have benefits (if that's what you would choose to call them) which is more than an out of work person could say.
Cons
My top downsides to working for AT&T Mobility: 1. I was informed at the end of 2007 that I should be making approximately 10k more than I currently am based off of how AT&T pays their employees but I will remain at the same pay. 2. When the merit increases were handed out it was the lowest raise I had received in 6.5 years. You would have thought that they may have been slightly bigger granted that I was just told I should be making 10k more. 3. My benefits are awful; I could almost go to a cobra type insurance plan and have the same coverage. 4. AT&T Mobility felt that our wireless service groups were too large and implemented a mandatory 20% surplus of the majority of groups....mine included.
