Pros

Customer Service is making a strategy shift to home based agents and U.S. based vendor center involvement. Additionally, the release of 5G technology has been a market winner for the company, thus far, and has strengthened the stock. The announcement by the CEO to offer a widesweeping voluntary separation package has also had a positive "uptick" on the stock, as well.

Cons

Steps are underway via a voluntary separation program to gentrify the workforce and hopefully revitalize Verizon's overall operations (wireless and wire line). The publicly announced plan involves allowing an overall revitalization of the worforce with the opportunity being offered to a large amount of employees. The culture is still that of a company that struggles to avoid being too big, and thus out of touch with some of its consumers and constituents.

Pros

There's a lot of good people that work there. Work/Home balance is good. Pay is solid

Cons

Upper mgmt in Tulsa is stuck in the 1990s, Verizon is a "technology" company that promotes wireless use, but doesn't allow employees to work from home for any reason. You have to take vacation time if you have something to attend to at home. They stack a thousand cubes on a floor packed in together in and old school office setting.. It makes coming to work a drag because the atmosphere and culture is dreadful.
