Pros

Verizon has a large global product portfolio, global name recognition, and substantial market share. Customers are familiar and will always include you in their IT opportunity bidding.

Cons

Verizon is very cost conscious. RIF, downsizing, and cost-constraints lead the senior management team. Theoretically, developing and creating a superior global company is what then want but we normally get bogged down in cost-cutting.

Pros

If you work hard and your manager has say in upper management then you grow at fast pace

Cons

If the project is not of diorect importance, then how much hard you work, you don't get anything, and you don't get to change projects

Pros

The organization is a great company to add to your resume. Although they are streamlining to remain afloat in this economy, they still remain on top. Good benefits, although use to be a lot better. Great company to launch your career.

Cons

Politics. There are things in the organization that is unfair and very subjective. The organization claims to stand by its CREDO but I can recall many instances where the mission statement of the company was not being lived. Politics can make you or break. Tons of rumors in the work environment which can decrease the professionalism. I recommend working for HQ in NJ if you can.
