      Verizon Business Review

      Pros

      Verizon brand name recognition open doors for sales opportunities. Verizon pays well for solid performance; albeit, upside is limited for outstanding achievement. Excellent training programs are available, and employees are encouraged to continue learning. Verizon also offers numerous products and services. Verizon attracts very talented people, and its top leadership are well deserving of their positions.

      Cons

      It's a large company with standard: processes, procedures, services so it can be difficult to bring additional value to customers, and react quickly in a dynamic market. As you would expect with any large, regulated company, the beauracracy is a challenge, but can be navigated with patience and persistence.

      Pros

      Benefits are unmatched in my opinion except for retirement due to recent changes. Training is available in many forms, instructor led, online and tuition assistance are all very good. Gain solid work experience.

      Cons

      Employed for 14 years and having served half that time as a craft union employee and the other half as a management employee; The culture is very outdated! The environment demands 50 hours or more per week. Jobs and budget are being constantly reduce while at the same time the workload is increasing. Innovative thinking is treated like a criminal activity. Reorgs are a once or twice a year activity perpetuating constant chaos. Our leadership operates as if this is the 70's and we have unlimited budget, unlimited resources, unlimited time to get things done, and as if we are still the only game in town. There is little too no leadership from senior management in this environment. We are just told what to do and given little to work with.
