Pros

union benefits were great but new contract employee's did not have the same benefits.

Cons

could be fired at any time. stopped commissions. they can make something up on you and then fire you. the union is weak and has their own agenda.

Pros

The total package is outstanding from Education, Career Opportunities and Salary. You can't go wrong getting on board with this company. There are virtually limitless opportunities to move into other areas if you would like.

Cons

Mostly just the fact that VZW is a big company with some frustrations that go along with the structure you would find in a similar institution.

Pros

I found that the benefits package and salaries are some of the best in the business. Even entry level positions pay comparatively well. Direct supervisors are typically very personable and approachable. Floor support is competent and easily accessible.

Cons

Senior management is nothing short of incompetent. The company claims that most members of management started on the floor and worked their way up, but they seem to have lost touch, or are not keeping up with the changes. When changes are implemented, it is not uncommon for supervisors and upper management to have little to no information about the changes. Human Resources is not helpful when adjusting to personal issues in the workplace. The FMLA and disability claims process is a disaster, and has lead to multiple employees, including myself, to being terminated.
