      Good benefits, but no work life balance - Senior Manager Verizon Employee Review

      Pros

      Verizon offers a competitive salary, medical benefits, phone discount, and decent vacation policy. Most individuals are good to work with.

      Cons

      You work non-stop, though I guess this is department depending. Nights, weekends, holidays, vacations...doesn't matter. You are always on call. There's very little work/life balance, and really no way to just shut down. And while the culture was previously strong, you can see that starting to fracture with the recent mass layoffs that were announced. As typically happens with this type of re-org, there's a lot of confusion and dysfunction.

      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.
