Pros

Money, If you can sell you can make money. Great benefits, If you are a fan of tech getting to see some stuff constantly was always a great perk.

Cons

It all depends on your management and district management. A great manager can make the problems and make it manageable. But even a great manager cannot fix or prevent the overbearing nature of a bad district manager. You will see people cheat to slam hums onto an account, with the district manager turning a blind eye to it or even defending it because it makes them look good. If you plan to make a career out of it try to get into Verizon wireless outside of the sales sphere otherwise you will get stuck and locked into it. If you do not mind forcing things people dont need on them then you will be fine, but if you feel bad telling that little old lady she needs an Ipad this isn't the job for you.

Pros

Compensation is competitive but you will work very hard for it. Culture is excellent and exhibited and practiced from the top down. Benefits are excellent and cost reasonable. 401k match and profit sharing. Lots of training and professional development opportunities. Can advance if you're willing to relocate.

Cons

Company is trying to transform into what it wants to be beyond a wireless carrier (cloud?, security?, telematics?, wholesaler?, etc) and is struggling with a vision, resources, and org structure to make it a reality. Several re-organizations over last few years so job security has frequently been a question. Often delayed response to competitors caused by management's concern that acting would result in not meeting Wall Street expectations. Not the "happiest" place to work because no result is ever good enough and successes aren't celebrated because the focus is always on the next weekly/monthly/quarterly goal.
