Pros

- Great pay and benefits - Excellent training and support - Ongoing learning opportunities - Discounts on services and products - Great coworkers - Fun environment - Clear expectations - The ability to help customers

Cons

The schedule can be less than convenient for parents if they have lower seniority, but the pay is helpful to parents too and is hard to find at other jobs.

Pros

Prior to AT&T buyout of DIRECTV, it was a fantastic work environment. Great perks, beautiful offices, minimal bureaucracy, collegiate environment and quick pace in terms of management decisions and implementation of projects or policies. Those of us who worked here prior to AT&T would describe DTV as a "well funded startup" type of environment where innovation and new ideas were encouraged and employee morale and development was a top priority.

Cons

After the AT&T buyout of DIRECTV, it is glaringly obvious just how different the two companies are. All of the aspects we loved about DTV are quickly disappearing. Employee perks and budgets for morale have disappeared. Decision making in all areas of the business is absurdly convoluted and slow, even for the smallest of business needs. Heirarchy reigns supreme at AT&T, in stark contrast to the very lateral environment that existed previously at DTV. Each new day is becoming more depressing than the last.

Pros

Opportunity to work on cutting edge technologies. Support for women in technical leadership roles. Pride in diversity & inclusion with 12 Employee Resource Groups with 40k+ members. Great benefits including 4+ weeks vacation, 6% salary match of 401k, paid maternity/paternity leave, financial support for adoption. Flexibility to work from home or office in newly renovated collaboration zones. Lots of opportunity to move around the company & work on new products.

Cons

Process heavy with lots of administrative overhead.
