Pros

Benefits are great. Management is interested in my thoughts and are always willing to listen. Am Able to telecommute when needed. Enjoy the people.

Cons

Downsizing- it is IT so there is a lot of offshoring and outsourcing. You never can feel safe. Salaries are not real fair...some people start at triple what I make - hard to get salary where it should ne.

Pros

Work life balance, exposure to cutting edge technology, exposure to different leadership styles, benefits, some opportunity for advancement between entry level and director level positions for those willing to be accountable for results

Cons

Little to none active coaching and career feedback, old-boy network for officer-track promotions and for selecting promising director-level candidates for further advancement, terrible trickle-down from officer and VP-level decisions through to responsible directors and staff, poor vendor management and many co-workers who are just there to get a paycheck and only do the minimum

Pros

flexibility in schedule is nice. New technologies in a massive network are enticing. Scale of what we can deliver is unequalled.

Cons

AT&T is a consumer company with mobility services, so if you support enterprise "wireline" services you are not the favorite child. Unfortunately, the ability to think outside of the box is very rare. If you don't like the job you have, AT&T is a great launching pad to other jobs in or out of the company.
