Pros

Tuition reimbursement of $8,000 yearly. Annual Bonus @12% of salary. Variety of job titles in each location. On site Gym, college, and cafe.

Cons

Scheduled hours may sometimes be outside of normal business hours. Quotas (sales) while on phones may be hard to obtain. Vacation is hard to plan as you bid with few hundred peers. May have split days off.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits including tuition assistance

Cons

Terrible management. People at Verizon worry more about how they will look in the eyes of upper management then if the product is actually profitable. This can go on while you are a cash cow, but cannot successfully go on forever. Without Verizon Wireless, the remainder of the business would be an absolute failure. The ROI for the billions spent is laughable. If you are going to sell your soul for a decent paycheck and work here, work in wireless. The telecomm side is an absolute joke.

Pros

Management is great about personal interaction Great Verizon benefits Great co-workers Selling great products Opportunities for moves within the company

Cons

Not enough room to advance; sales have been slow and yet they continue to hire more personnel. Management needs to stop and take a breather to assess how much growth is realistic.
