      Cons

      Awful Management, IT systems, outdated, inaccurate target based KPI's, out of touch with customer demand. In-store 1st / 2nd & 3rd line support worse than the general customer services.

      Pros

      The one good thing I could probably think about is flexibility in work location and hours. Free personal mobile calls and data

      Cons

      Lack of strategy, both in terms of leadership and technology. Communication from upper management flip-flops between one strategic direction to a complete 180 degree turn in short timeframes (i.e. 3 months). Vodafone NZ has had the meat cut from it and all that remains is the skeleton. Management are only concerned with their own positions. There is very poor career growth and opportunities to progress. Bonus schemes are vague and numbers seem to appear without rationale. I had 3 different managers in a period of 6 months. Upper level management don't even seem to know what they're selling. Contractors seem to be preferred over full time employees. If you apply for a job you probably wont be notified if you're unsuccessful. Your application will disappear into a deep dark black hole. Negotiate a maximum rem package you can and prepare to stay for a short term. The local competition have been thrashing it and there is negative growth in the telco market.
