Pros

There are many products to sell and you can usually get in the door with your customers because of the brand name. There are many extensions of the account team to support a deal.

Cons

Processes can be cubersome and being such a big company, it can take longer to get proposals out the door.

Pros

You cannot get fired period. The pay Is ok, It was better. It is a good place to get sales experience and then go elsewhere. Easy to become a store manager.

Cons

Job Security for anyone, even the worst of the worst. You now need a college degree to do something anyone can do. The way they restructured commission is awful. I knew sales reps in regular stores making 70+ a year. Now your'e lucky to make 50. Verizon likes to measure with broken rulers, and beat you up for things way beyond anyones control. Numbers and abillities don't matter as much as knowing someone who'll pull strings. Its very cliqueish(?).
