Pros

- Good Benefits - Job Security - Good for mediocre folks. - Verizon wireless IT is a better place than communications. - can use latest technology.

Cons

-No idea on how to add value for the company - Slave driving environment, no one has any idea why they are slaving and why they are slave driving. - Smart people who do things right are not appreciated, instead of people who screw up (mediocre) and keep fixing by working over time are appreciated and grow, basically wrong incentive

Pros

The benefits are exceptional! Verizon provides tuition assistance, backup childcare, medical, dental, vision, etc.

Cons

Reps are undercompensated and underappreciated. The preasure trickles down from management to reps to produce unrealistic results. There is no work/life balance.
