Pros

Salary..that's all I can say...no job security, no respect, no integrity in business....it's a nightmare....the masses are getting restless.....look at the number of people out on stress leave and medicated....it's an epidemic

Cons

There is no caring for employees/you are required to work 24/7 via Blackberry's, laptops, etc./ When facing serious illness you will be terminated regardless of you exemplary performance/nothing is ever completed well enough, nor is the amount of hours (I put in at least 14 hours everyday and never caught up)/HIGH STRESS environment/goals stated by upper management are not what they really expect/without being said, many management employees are expected to sacrifice their integrity to do what is expected/CONSTANTLY threatened with termination.

Pros

Honestly a good company. Great benefits, great pay. Clearly have a great engineering backside to the company. Excellent financing/marketing/merch. Corporate is the way to go.

Cons

That being said, if you start low at Verizon, expect to stay there for a long time before you move up. Unless you know someone to help you move faster, or you are a stud salesperson, then you will take 1 to 2 years to make management. Store managers stay there for a long time too. Best practice: just apply to higher position first to avoid wait or go corporate (if you can).

Pros

Compensation and certain benefits. Opportunities to laterally move between jobs.

Cons

For a communications company there is a lack of it.
