Pros

Verizon Wireless has a very good benefits package and overall is competitive for compensation. I was a former Alltel Employee converted to a VZW employee during the buy out and I personally think that Alltels compensation was better.

Cons

Alot of micro management and too many employees working at one time in my store. When working sales Id rather have less employees so the sales opportunities.
