Pros

It is a fast paced company with job roles that are always changing. There is a lot of room for growth and advancement if you are willing to relocate. My experience with management is very good towards Work/life Balance and allows me to put family first. Of course the actual times you need to do this should be minimal, but when it does I have no problems what so ever.

Cons

The compesation is a little of the low side. I am not sure if other companies are the same but it is very tight-fisted here. A review of my position put me in a salary range I am not meeting for the last two years by thousands of dollars. If it were not for the very generous and flexible time off I would have left long ago. Others are having the same issues as far a pay is concerned. Communication is often OK at best. The running joke is ATT stands for At This Time because everything is always changing. It seems like a lot of wasted effort at the time to me. In the company defense I am on the lower rung of managment, so I do not have access to all the information.

Pros

Benefits. I started in quite a few years ago so we had good health, dental, vision plans, 401k, Pension and 28 days off per year plus 2 wireless plans at no cost.

Cons

Benefits are going downhill after Cingular began integrating with AT&T. Health is worse now, 401k a little worse now and days off policy and increments are changing. The base compensation is the worst part though. Cingular/AT&T base salaries are very unfair compared to other companies. Also, if you start out low, it will take 20 years to reach a decent base salary as they yearly increments are only 3% (sometimes much more based on Manager approval).

Pros

I enjoy the nature of my work. I believe there will be a continued need for my input at this company.

Cons

My present business unit suffers from a very inbred culture. This organization is quite slow to adapt to changes in the market or to adapt new technology.
