Pros

Lots of telecom networking knowledge Flexible hours Fair compensation Lots of worldwide connections possible Great for people with families and children - lots of extras and benefits

Cons

Mid-level management not so great If you have novel ideas, forget it - almost impossible to reach the decision-making level of management, and even harder to get assigned time for prototyping. I've seen to many great people with brilliant ideas failing to achieve anything, because of management unresponsive and uninterested in innovation. Overall, not too competitive Not so great for singles - less benefits

Pros

well established world leader in networks and telecom Opportunities for hardware interfacing (BLM and Smart Edge) Above average pay, benefits and events Good mentors and very competent team leads

Cons

I worked as a contractor and I often found a deliberate seclusion of information from contract employees. The opportunities to convert to full time are rare as the company believes in training new grads to fit into certain roles. New features are widely spaced and the time in between can get boring... running sanity tests, solving customer issues etc. etc.
