Pros

The only real reason to work for them is for the discounts on the phones. If you happen to work in the field it's good but all that is changing now. They are outsourcing everything.

Cons

When it comes to working in the field everthing is outsourced so there is no real control despite what management thinks. I have watched outsourcers steal thousands of dollars worth of equiptment but the Verizon employees say nothing and just laugh it off.

Pros

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Cons

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
