Pros

Can be proud of the products Verizon is offering from FiOS to business class data circuits to wireless -- all are first class.

Cons

Wireline business is shrinking so the opportunities for growth are limited. Constant fear of downsizing leads to poor moral in parts of the business.

Pros

Good salaries, solid benefits, first line management tries to create and support a productive environment but its nearly impossible in the face of finance driven business decisions

Cons

All business decisions are made on financials. No real strategy. Constant reorgnization and downsizing. Executives disconnected from everything but numbers.
