Pros

The biggest benefit at working at Verizon is the commission salary along with hour based salary. Benefits are included also.

Cons

Sales are not as easy compared to working at T-Mobile, AT&T, or any other carrier or authorize dealer. The managers are the worse

Pros

For the area that I live in, the work is an excellent compensation for customer service. The bonuses are top-notch, and the benefits are excellent.

Cons

The opportunities for career advancement are non-existent. Unless you have ambitions of becoming a management drone, this is not the career for you. Anyone with technical aptitude should look elsewhere for a permanent career. Moving from one department to another is nearly impossible. There is also the feeling that the customer support teams are "second class citizens." The intra-company praise is doled out to the sales teams on a constant basis, while the CS aspects are largely ignored, unless something goes wrong.

Pros

High pressure focus to get the work done leads to opportunities to quickly learn new technologies and to deliver for the customer.

Cons

Very little opportunity for advancement. Hiring freezes and lack of focus on improving job functions and salaries has led to a stagnant telco personality.
