Pros

Verizon offers a lot of extra perks besides a nice paycheck. Tuition reimbursement, paid time off, matching 401K, etc. It is a great place to learn about the telecommunications industry, to grow professionally and personally, and is very invested in the development of its employees.

Cons

There is a lot of emphais on performance so if you don't do well with constant feedback and competition then Verizon is not the place for you. The only other thing that would be a Con is the office politics. It isn't near as bad as most companies, but there are definitely a lot of self promoting in order to get recognized and move up in certain departments.

IT employees have a challenging task of working with teams in India early in the morning and work with onshore team till late in the day - so they end up working Long hours.
