      Good place to start. Learn, and move on.

      Pros

      Supportive co-workers and a cooperative environment. Innovation and stability, as well as a large presence in a number of fields; wireless, phone, data, corporate and government. If there's something new, we'll be working with it. A feeling that though phone is dying, wireless is doing great and we're moving into delivery area (FIOS) ahead of competition.

      Cons

      Unsupportive or difficult and unproductive workers seem to be able to camp out and collect pay with no repercussions. Their workload is shifted to other employees who are untrained in that area, or already overworked. Training is infrequent. Little opportunity to advance unless you leave or devote serious personal time to learning new skills. Some promotions occur but appear based more on friendships and politics than skills or abilities.

      The Verizon Business unit of Verizon is a meat grinder.

      Pros

      Big name on resume because some value that highly, exposure to wide variety of marketplace solutions, financial stability of company, a good place for a young pup to cut his/her teeth in workplace. Very politically correct (a two edged sword to be sure) but if you can stomach or need this kind of benefit, it's there. And it offers increasing opportunities abroad, speaking specifically to the VZ Business unit.

      Cons

      Rigidness, excessive process orientation, stifled creativity. Similar to many large companies, a double standard which benefits the "mother ship" and not the employee. Rigidness--worth repeating.
