Sprint Nextel Merger is Bad News for Nextel Employees

I have been employed by Sprint PCS in the past, and am currently
employed by Nextel. Nextel has excellent benefits, and has a great
working environment. They don't just "talk the talk", they truly care
about their employees. They will even give you $3,500 to assist with
adopting a child.

Sprint, on the other hand, has mediocre benefits at best, and treat
their employees as "just another number".

The news of this merger is a big disappointment to me, and I advise all
Nextel employees to get ready for the "shaft".

I reactivated my resume on all of the major job boards today. Sprint is
not a good place to work.

Like Isaiah, I have to seriously doubt your agenda. *And*=20
your sincerity, too. Sprint had the same adoption benefit=20
when I left in July. And even provided leaves of absence=20
for it.

You know what they say about generalizations, right? My 5-year
anniversary with Sprint is just around the corner and I have no major
complaints.
