Pros

Good Benefits decent pay good training good network

Cons

outrageous quotas low employee morales poor management company doesn't care about their quality employees hard to get time off trainings every Saturday at 7am if you don't hit your numbers trainings every Friday at 8am on useless information hired as a district so you get bounced around when ever the district manager feels like it.

Pros

The benefits and pay are the best in the industry. You get great discounts and the company does care about you.

Cons

The reason that I will not make my career at Verizon Wireless is because I don't want to stay in sales for the rest of my life. It is very difficult to move around the company unless you are good friends or are well liked by management. Never mind the great skills that you bring to the company. Promotions are very hard to come by, regardless of what they tell you. Verizon also pushes work/life balance heavily, yet fails to give employees that balance (unless you are out of retail)
