Pros

Great Benefits and if you get, a Supervisor not on a power trip. Nice work environment and if the Budget is good. Maybe a nice incentive Yearly or nice Gifts.

Cons

Some of the Leadership, you work under in certain Departments can make your job horrible.

Pros

Excellent benefits package, good salary, educational $$$.

Cons

Downsizing has been a way of life for employees. VZ will periodically adjust it's workforce in response to business needs. Targets positions, not person so good people can be outed.

Pros

There is opportunity for growth if you know the right people.

Cons

Your manager can try to hold you back or make your job harder than necessary if want to get rid of you. They can start to throw unnecessary obstacles your way just to make your job harder, so they can put you on a progression plan. It is like being in a barrel of crabs if you are around a manager that is on the way out due to job performance. Of course their excuse is that "you" the associate is not performing and that is why their numbers are not where they should be. Make sure your manager has a degree!!! My manager didn't even have an Associates degree, much less a Bachelors degree. I am still trying to figure out what idiots put him in management. It happened to me twice, where I was placed with a manager that has less of an education than I did.
