Pros
The amount of money that I made at Verizon Wireless was amazing, and it kept me there for six years. Retention is great, because the salary is great. It's really tough to find a job anywhere else making that kind of money. I frequently traveled, which I really enjoyed. The company also had great kick-off events, which would fire you up for the sales year.
Cons
There is zero work-life balance. I managed three locations at one time, and I needed to be available anytime they were open. Forget having a nice family dinner - I could, but they were always interrupted. Even family functions were hijacked by family and friends asking 101 questions about their cellphone. Also, conference calls at 4AM happened; even if I was scheduled off. In addition to the above, upper management never seemed happy. I had very successful stores, with sales above and beyond sales goals. However, they would be upset that the store didn't even do better than that.
