      Pros

      Exciting projects, lots of career opportunities, very stable job.

      Cons

      Promotions are almost never given out, you have to apply for a different job in order to have a chance. Re-organizations happen frequently.

      Pros

      Overall, the benefits are great. They provide full medical, dental, and vision for my entire family at absolutey no cost to me. SInce the center is open 24x7, once you gain enough seniority, the schedules are very flexible. The pay is decent for only requiring a high-school diploma. You start out low, but if you stick with it and put your time in, you can easily make 35k-40k yearly (depending on overtime).

      Cons

      The first few years are horrible. Scheduling is based on seniority so you pretty much have to work the crap hours and every weekend for years. The supervisors are not all on the same page. What is acceptable for one is not acceptable for another. There is a lot of favoritism. There is pretty much forced overtime every summer of a mandatory 6 day work schedule. Also, there is almost no room for advancement for the company in this area. If you wanted to move up in the company, look to move outside of the state. The union is really weak so not much gets accomplished on that end. The office has a lot of gossip-mongers, also.

      Pros

      great pay great benefits available overtime great work atmoshpere the network newest technology safe workplace always busy economy proff business great commision payout ESN days

      Cons

      Verizon is a great place to work and you can really make some good money there. The downside is that it is very hard to balance work and family. Due to the high demand of the business you may work 60+hrs a week and are forced to work on your day off or work 12-14hr days and only 1 weekend off per mon and you can hang up getting off on any holidays,but you will have a nice paycheck. I never see my husband or kids but I do make enough to were my husband can stay home with kids and I can buy them whatever they want or need.
