      Verizon is a good stable company to work for.

      Pros

      It appears to be a stabled company in an unstable economy. The benefits are good and it is a generally positive environment. I think that how you feel about the company varies depending on what department you work in. High churn departments like the call centers generally have a lower satisfaction rate, where that satisfaction rate is much higher in other areas. The flip side to that is that there is more opportunity to advance in the call centers. I.T. departments have many tenured employees and not much career movement.

      Cons

      The culture seems to be changing somewhat due to the influence of the landline side Verizon Communications. Benefits, although still competitive have been cut and there is more red tape than there used to be.

      Pros

      Benefits are amazing, it would be hard to find better benefits,.other than maybe having a pension. There are also many opportunities within the company to advance. The tuition assistance is great,..currently 8000 per year. There is also an open door philosophy.

      Cons

      Some of the hiring practices internally leave something to be desired. More emphasis than necessary is placed on recruiting minorities into positions, even if someone is better qualified. Also, there is too much emphasis put on hiring from within, although it is great to have a promote from within philosophy, it would be nice to get outsider views as well.
