Pros

AT&T is a stable company with one of the world's best known "brands". Everyone knows who AT&T is. They are committed to ethical business practices which is why they avoided the problems that Worldcom/MCI had. AT&T is also genuine in their support of diversity regardless of race/religion/orientation.

Cons

Because of their size, AT&T is not at all flexible, either with their employees, their customers or their way of doing business. Even with the size of the company, there are limited career growth opportunities. Most departments are very understaffed for current work loads with plans for further cuts. Salary/compensation packages are 10%-15% below comparable positions at Verizon or Qwest. After several mergers SBC/AT&T/BellSouth/Cingular and others, there is little integration between the various companies, each retaining their own policies and proceedures, meaning that its difficult to do business as "one company". Training opportunities are limited, most are web based and are of poor quality.

Pros

Your job security is decent being such a large company. The location downtown was nice.

Cons

Mandatory ceiling on advancement of 2 years beyond the entry level position. Constant surveillance and criticism from ignorant management. An environment fostered which encourages employees to rat on each other and complain about one another.
