Pros

Good Benefits, better than most. Hundred percent 401(k) match up to 6%. Stock.

Cons

Disconnected leadership. Work life balance can be nonexistent in some departments and quite good in others. There is no consistency between divisions and departments. Culture of consistent annual restructuring and layoffs that do not have anything to do with performance. So very little job security.

Pros

The sheer volume of data, infrastructure, and budget allows you to build and run initiatives that you simply cannot replicate at smaller companies. While being here, we have had to solve complex, high-impact problems with strong results, the resources are absolutely here. The frontline teams and mid-level leaders (at least mine) are deeply knowledgeable technical experts who genuinely care about protecting and enabling the business. Leading people of this caliber makes cascading a vision highly rewarding, as the execution capability is top-tier. We are always striving to make the company better without compromising integrity.

Cons

Moving large initiatives or projects through a matrixed organization like Verizon requires an exhausting amount of red tape - no matter how much they want to claim otherwise. Decisions that should take days can take weeks or months due to the endless layers of alignment and stakeholder sign-offs required. This is further complicated as the company undergoes regular structural shifts, reorgs, and "strategy pivots". As a leader, a significant portion of your energy will be spent managing team fatigue and keeping folks steady through constant organizational "evolutions."
