Pros

Experience of complete software development lifecycle, lots of project are managed completely (working with clients from requirements gathering to implementation to monitoring to support) Naturally, that gives a chance to work and learn both technology and business.

Cons

The management is the worst. you have to play coy to the managers to get any awards/onsite trips or promotions. I have seen one of the top-level bosses behave cheaply with girls in the team. If you have seen Office(the US sitcom) then you will know exactly what i mean. there is no HR to keep a tab on these folks

Pros

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Cons

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
