Pros

Sprint campus has benefits like covered parking, on site cafeteria, and near lots of lunch spots.

Cons

My position was mis-represented in interviews, and not what I expected. Ticket system was "the boss". Number of tickets completed was only factor for reviews. Lots of "not our ticket, send it away" mentality to try and keep numbers up. Pay was very low, but market in general was bad in 2010-2011. Flood of Emails every day - often about my bosses, bosses bosses boss moving to a new department. - Man I never met becomes leader of a group I've never heard of... this isn't worth a company wide Email. HR department was terrible. Newly wed co-worker was told to wait till end of year to add new wife to insurance. At new year, he was told "should have done that after wedding". Was never resolved. Upon my layoff, I filed unemployment. 2 Years later I received notice of un-employment fraud. I had to get old pay stub info from HR. I put in a call and was told they'd get to me in 4 days. It took 2 months of dealing with HR and state to clear my name. Ericsson HR was at fault with inaccurate paperwork.

Pros

Once you are in and settled you will be able to learn from several different ways as formal training, on the job training, web based courses, workshops, etc. The company is very big and there are many opportunities if you commit.

Cons

As any other company there is a lot of politics. Some managers are not worried about their employees growth. Most promotions happen very slowly, sometimes it is faster to get promoted if you leave the company and come back a year later.
