Working for an operator or for a vendor ?

[lihanbok]

Hi Everyone,
In my country, it is advantage and disadvantage work for operator or vendor.
1. If you work for Vendor, You have many opportunity to improve your knowledge and to learn new telecom technology. Your salary is high, you are easy to fire if Vendor don't have project ( your job is astable).
2. If you work for Operator. You only learn some course about new technology when Operator want to deploy. You always teach yourself. Your job is stable.
This is only my opinion.

If you do for vendor or operator, You are still lucky . If you work for subcon, you don't have high salary and stable.

Really ??? try working for vendors in South america. You get pretty much the same money than the operator's guys. You job is not as stable and off course you can be fired upon any of these sinergies going on...
I think the best choice is to work either for a vendor or operator for 3-4 years and then go freelance. Yo will have less stability but the money is way better.

you have to be in right time in right place, when operator just starting business and you have good qualification - you will get good salary. same with vendor.

for old guy like me, operator is better option for sure.
anyway, there is no such word as "stable" nowadays in telecommunication my friend..
