Pros

It is a job, perks are good

Cons

commission based on how many and how fast you go...if you do everything they want you to your sales suffer. Verizon thinks the more sales people they have the more sales they will get. They barely do any marketing. The retail sales reps are to bring in their own business like out side sales but don't have the lead way to make sales. Meaning we would still have to be their 8 hour or more a day but if we get a customer to come in on our day off then we have to be there. If we don't make our very high sales goals we have to come in on our days off and explain why we can't sell anything. Because there are too many sales reps nobody has enough work to do. So everyone just stands in the front of the store lunging at people. The job is very boring compared to the way it had been in the past. If your not one of the "faster reps" you can barely make enough to live in southern california

Pros

The pay and health benefits are good. Tuition reimbursement is a plus too. Company provided cell phone for self and generous discount on additional lines for family and friends.

Cons

No work life balance at all. You are constantly asked to work all the time. Work through lunches, come back early from lunches and stay late and come in early.

Pros

So many people laid off, easy access to copy machine and good parking spaces. Building has nice bathrooms and desk space. Not much else....

Cons

Management is poor and unorganized. Everyone wants credit for all they can claim and at the expense of anything. Company doesn't care about the customer.
