Pros

Great people with a clear mission and supportive environment. It's a great place to start a career and grow. The physical space (offices and surrounding grounds) are spectacular.

Cons

Adtran had a record setting run of profitability of 20+ years. However, management has not made the best choices in recent years but things seem to be looking up again. That said, Adtran's mission places them in markets that could be subject to intense international competition and price pressure from foreign governments. No one will grow your career at Adtran. You will have to do that yourself.

Pros

Run by engineers, so leadership understands the engineering problem space. Gives engineers the tools required to get the job done.

Cons

A more recent reliance on bloated processes to get work done. I'm not sure the work output outweighs the overhead. Possibly too much reliance on outsourcing across time zones. 24/7 work is nice, but staying in sync can be difficult.
